Overview
As a pediatric otolaryngologist and head and neck surgeon, I provide kids and their families a unique perspective and understanding of the natural clinical history of medical problems that may arise. I am passionate and dedicated to helping kids with both routine and complex head and neck problems, including performing cochlear implant surgery, and value the natural collaborative nature of taking care of children and their families. Being involved with kids and their families is one of the most gratifying and satisfying privileges that I have had the fortune of experiencing. I hope to continue to build these relationships and watch the kids that I help take care of grow up.

Duke Ambulatory Surgery Center
I found myself fascinated by otolaryngology early in my medical school training because of the wide variety of patients and procedures we get to manage. I have always enjoyed technology and thinking outside of the box, which is a perfect match for this specialty. Additionally, I really love working with children and their families; it is a privilege to play a small role in a child's growth and development. I am drawn to surgery because it epitomizes the combination of art and science in medicine allowing for creative solutions to complicated problems. In my free time, I also pursue creative hobbies. I play the piano, and I still take lessons weekly. I started piano with my daughter when she was four and both my children are in musical fields now. I also make jewelry, enjoy learning languages, such as Spanish and Russian, reading, traveling, and practicing photography with my husband. We both like being with friends and family whether we are cooking at home or checking out new cuisine. Dr. Raynor is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Infant Hearing Loss.

Davis Ambulatory Surgical Center
Being a kid is tough, but being a kid with hearing, breathing, feeding, sleep, or voice problems is especially challenging. A child with any of these problems has a more difficult time learning to navigate our world and connecting with other people. My goal is to help children overcome these issues, so they can focus on developing the skills they need to become successful adults. I treat children of all ages with ear, nose, and throat problems as well as congenital malformations and infections that need surgical care. I take a kid-centric approach to my work and think that a little fun can go a long way in helping children and their families feel comfortable. In my free time, I like to travel, hike, cook, and especially EAT!. Dr. Lee is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Infant Hearing Loss.
