Testimonials


I am very pleased with the results of my procedure with Dr. Lin. From the very start, he answered all of my questions and was easy to communicate with. I felt very comfortable and safe in his hands, and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional, kind, and warm doctor.

I had Dr. Lin for two different cosmetic procedures and I would whole heartedly recommend him to anyone who is looking into getting cosmetics done. From the very beginning it was an incredible experience. He was always very helpful and patient in answering all the questions I asked him (there was over 30!) and he is great at making you feel comfortable and heard. One of the things I loved about him is he doesn't sugarcoat things to you and explains everything in as many different ways as you need so you fully understand everything. He gives you the best advice so that you may have the best possible outcomes. He checks in with you many times before surgery to make sure you are feeling good about your decision and is always reachable to you. The day of surgery went so smoothly. He has the very best team that takes care of everything from the IVs to placing the marks so that you are the least stressed as possible. I had no complications and I am in love with the results. I am in awe everyday with my new body and it is all thanks to Dr. Lin!

I am writing this letter as a follow up to my daughter, Angela’s, Rhinoplasty and deviated septum surgery in August. Knowing that you have so many patients, I will try to familiarize you with her situation. She had, at this point in time, just completed her freshman year in college and was about to transfer to San Francisco. She came to you primarily to have nose surgery. As a parent, I always believed that my daughter was a beautiful young woman. However, my husband and I supported her in her decision to have her nose “fixed”. She had a minor bump and had been the subject of bullying in high school and middle school because of her nose. As bright and as talented as my daughter was, her confidence in her appearance and in other aspects of her life had been compromised. She had a very successful surgery at your gifted hands. You were able to repair her deviated septum but, more importantly, you were able to shave down the bump and sculpt her nose. What a beautiful job! She just graduated, Cum-Laude, from college with a degree in Public Relations/Political Science. She is staying in San Francisco and has a job with a communications firm. I recently asked her what professor made the biggest impact on her college career and she quickly replied that, “It wasn’t a professor; it was Dr. Lin”. She went on to tell me in a mother/daughter conversation that Dr. Lin “made me realize that I wasn’t ugly”. This comment tugged at my heartstrings, but I wanted you to know that you were directly responsible for restoring her confidence in herself. We are very proud of her as she begins her career. She is a happy, vibrant, and accomplished young woman. You were a huge part of her success! Hope that all in well with you. Enclosed is a picture of her at her graduation. Thank you for your part in her happiness! Thank you so very much for your brilliant work!

I just wanted to extend my sincere thanks for the compassionate and skillful care you-and your team-have provided my spouse during her nose reconstruction. I have watched her regain her confidence, and spirit, with each healing day that passes. It is thanks to your skill that she did not have to go through the forehead flap procedure, and thanks to you that she is healing beautifully! Your caring and gentle nature transformed her nervousness and uncertainty into courage and confidence. Thank you for being who you are and doing what you do!

My visit to you on July 14 turned out to be bittersweet! I am thrilled at how well my nose healed – however, every time I visited your office it was a shot in the arm. You and your staff could not have been more supportive and encouraging. I will be forever grateful.

During my last two visits with you, there was so much for me to process with my new nose, that I never thanked you properly for all that you did. I could not be happier with the results. For the first time, I can breathe and the cosmetic outcome is perfection. You cannot see the suture line! Your work is impeccable. I am very grateful to you, and it will be a pleasure to recommend you to my friends and colleagues.

Dear Dr. Lin,
I really appreciate the time and effort you took into making my nose surgery a success. You made me feel so comfortable and I couldn’t be happier with my results! Thank you for helping me get my confidence back. You are truly an incredible doctor.

Thank you so much for the great work you did on my breast reduction. I can’t tell you how much happier (not to mention easier) my life is now, and I have you to thank. I have been recommending you to everyone who asks, and I will continue to do so. Keep up the great work!

When I took off the bandages and the surgical bra and looked in the mirror, for the first time since my mastectomy cancer was not looking back at me. Thank you so much. I am proud and always have been to be a cancer survivor. It is like a badge of honor that reminds me when I doubt myself I can do whatever I have to. However before the surgery I didn’t feel like I looked the same. Not only am I proud to say I am a breast cancer survivor, but I also thanks to you look better than I did before. May God bless you and your family. Please enjoy the cookies that my daughter and I made. Thanks again.

Just wanted to drop a quick line to tell you how grateful I am for your recently performed surgery. I feel fantastic, look awesome and only wish I had done it sooner. A-One service by all. Thank you so much. I am forever grateful.

I’m so grateful for all you’ve done for me this year – thank you. Merry Christmas!

Great experience with doctor Lynn, did not experience anything I wasn’t told for recovery. The first week after surgery is rough but after the splints are out breathing is improved greatly. Some drainage also happens throughout healing but nothing that hurts. No severe pain throughout the entire process as long as saline rinse and proper care is done. Overall great experience.

I had an amazing experience with Dr. Lin and his team! I got a septoplasty to fix my breathing and they did a wonderful job and helped me adjust to my newfound nose breathing. Very helpful during the recovery process. Beyond satisfied with the results!

I suffered trauma in my nose a long time ago while in heavy seas on a ship and I never thought to have it addressed. Fast forward about 18 years, my airways were scanned while seeing a breathing doctor for sleep apnea and it was discovered that my septum was deviated. Dr. Lin and his fantastic staff performed a flawless septoplasty and my breathing and sleeping is better than I remember it ever being. The entire process, from end-to-end was superior. Customer service, punctuality, professionalism, responsiveness, and skill were all top notch and I am eternally grateful. Thank you to Dr. Lin and his team!

Christopher Ivey
I suffered from an inability to breath through my nose for years, due to a past rhinoplasty procedure. Having Dr. Lin correct this through surgery has been a game changer for me. Everything from our first meeting until my final follow-up was easy. His staff is very competent and helpful, and I was taken on time for all my appointments. Dr. Lin has a great bedside manner and is an excellent physician. Finally, the surgical facility, staff and experience were exceptional.

Randy Hammer
After two major aesthetic and functional injuries to my nose as a child, I spent over 30 years meeting with ENTs and doctors to decide to move forward with the procedure. It wasn't until I met with Dr Lin with his precise and thoughtful approach that I finally felt confident to move forward with the procedure. He met with me many times in person and on the phone and even called me the evening before my procedure. I look like myself only improved site of the injury and my breathing immediately improved. He is not pushy, but also offers a clear expert opinion, which is the ideal combination. Thank you Dr Lin and all the nurses who answered my emails and calls with urgency and care!

Mona Marimow
Dr. Lin is the absolute BEST surgeon! He has been with me through 3 surgeries and always provides the best care. He was my plastic surgeon for my double mastectomy following my breast cancer diagnosis. Then my surgeon for my breast reconstruction. Finally he fixed my deviated septum while also combining it with my revision and another cancer related surgeon. I had some difficult recovery periods and Dr. Lin was always following up on my care, going above and beyond. My deviated septum surgery was amazing....I can finally breathe and sleep quietly. My recovery from this was pain-free and very simple. Dr. Lin and his team need 10 Stars for their care.

Heather Harvey
Very happy with the results, everything was explained straight forward and the process wasn’t bad at all and totally worth it, I sleep a lot better now and overall my lifestyle has improved. Thank you to Dr.Lin and his team, cannot thank you enough! Please go see him!

Emanuel Molina
Five stars all around. My only suggestion is better communication with the front staff/scheduling/returning calls. Dr Lin was always readily available and reassuring. Excellent surgeon! Amazing bedside manner and extremely caring.

Aja Davidson
If you're reading this and you're on the fence about whether or not to get a septoplasty, I can tell you that a lifetime of effortless breathing is 1,000% worth it. Overall I had an easy experience from consultation, to surgery, to post-operative care. Dr. Lin and his team are incredibly skilled in this procedure - before my surgery I was reading up on other people's recovery stories, and the recovery I had was far easier than anything I had imagined thanks to the way Dr. Lin performs this surgery. I would especially recommend him for septoplasty because he takes extra preventative measures against nasal perforations, which can occur post-operatively and require additional surgeries to repair. Since Dr. Lin performs surgery on patients with nasal perforations, he ensures that his septoplasty patients have the best chance possible against developing them post-op. I am about 2 months out and breathing better than I ever have in my life, and my only regret is that I wish I got this surgery sooner. Thank you Dr. Lin!

Will Machado
Dr. Lin and his team have given me the best experience. Everyone from Office Manager Phyllis, the office staff, PAs and training Fellows, to the people at Beth Israel Hospital Surgery were always available to answer questions and offer reassurance. I wish I could remember everyone's name to say thank-you.
