Dr. Ryann Lee

Dr. Lee is the founder and lead clinician for Experience Wellness. She began her medical career after a medical discharge from the United States ARMY.  When she was not able to remain enlisted as planned she decided to pursue a career that would still allow selfless service.  She was  educated locally  in the Pee Dee Region and online as a graduate. Dr. Lee accepted her first nursing job in a local emergency room. Her work in this setting inspired her to commit to lifelong learning and to further her education. She continued to work various local and travel nursing assignments as she obtained her doctoral degree and later added a psych certification.  Her experience includes: emergency medicine, substance abuse, academia, corrections, pre-admit testing, critical care, residential treatment, community care, population health, and research.

She feels that each "Experience"  afforded a new perspective on "Wellness".

 

​

"In the current economy, there has been a drastic shift in care quality and providers are challenged to do more with less. This creates care lapses and encourages the stigma that wellness is not equally as important as physical health. It is evident now more than ever that chronic depression or anxiety can be just as deadly as a heart attack. Grief can be debilitating. Personal injuries can change the entire trajectory of one's life. Therefore, the individual experience bears as much importance as outcomes and metrics that drive healthcare systems.  Wellness deserves as much attention as disease"
