Dr. Yein Lee hails from the UNT Health Sciences Center in a department that, she says “nobody really knows we exist.” As a physician for performing artists, Dr. Lee’s job is a worthy endeavor, though perhaps not always the easiest considering the toll a musician’s lifestyle can take on their body. But the moxie Dr. Lee shows in her profession helps Fort Worth musicians have a better, healthier quality of life. And that strikes a chord in all of us.
