Dr. John Lee (1929-2003) combined outstanding research with deep ethical principles, as expressed in the genuine care he brought to the treatment of each individual patient. Dr. Lee was a life-long learner who recognized that an excellent practitioner must search and grow to best serve the profession.

Dr. Lee inspired men and women…..to be thinkers! Dr. Lee was known by millions of people as the doctor who pioneered the use of transdermal progesterone cream and bio-identical hormones, and who had the courage to stand up against the medical establishment’s dangerous and misguided HRT (hormone replacement therapy) treatments. His findings touched off a storm of controversy. But years later, research proved him right. He believed that hormone balance could be obtained by every woman ( and man) in North America. Although Dr. Lee passed on October 2003, his work lives on in his best-selling books and with the Dr. John Lee Institute. We at the John Lee Institute are committed to keeping the vision Dr. John R. Lee had …alive!

1. He believed that all women (and men) needed to educate themselves.

2. He believed that everyone should have access to accurate ways of evaluating their hormones.

3. He believed that men and women alike should embark on a personalized program to begin the journey toward hormone balance.

To that end we are committed to providing the information required for women (and men) to understand the issues and the process needed to move forward on a program to restore hormonal balance.
