Thank you for the wonderful compassionate care I received under your care. You and your staff are amazing. It is clear to me that you consider the impact of your work on a very nervous patient like me.
After meeting with several “top” plastic surgeons in the Boston area, my daughter and I unanimously selected Dr. Lin to perform her procedure. He could not have been better!!! He has a world-class background and a conservative thought process. In addition, he was incredibly supportive and comforting throughout. Needless to state, her outcome was as he planned and we are thrilled.
Excellent demeanor. Listened to my concerns and made suggestions that would be best for me. Very tuned in to the patient, not rushed or pushing his advice. A 5-star dr.
Based upon my own experience, Dr. Lin is a very talented and skilled surgeon. He was also very easy and pleasant to work with. He has a calm and reassuring manner about him and encouraged input from me which I appreciated. I would have no hesitation to return to Dr. Lin for future procedures and can highly recommend him!
My motivation for the eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) was medical in nature that is to assist with my peripheral vision. However it was also cosmetic as I am in my early to middle 50s. and my eyes clearly demonstrated my age…With Dr. Lin there were no cons, only pros involved in the entire process. Dr. Lin was highly professional, both in evaluating me as a candidate for these operations, in setting expectations, and during post-operative followups. The ultimate outcome, for both procedures, was outstanding. Thanks to Dr. Lin and staff, years were taken off my appearance, particularly around my eyes, and my nose has a much better shape. I’m very pleased w/ the outcome and would recommend Dr. Lin to anybody needing plastic surgery w/out reservation.
My experience with Dr. Lin was truly amazing. From the moment I met him I knew that he was the right surgeon for me. He is by far the nicest, most approachable and down to earth surgeon I have ever met. He is kind, caring, humble, takes time to listen to you, and explains everything/addresses concerns.

I struggled with difficulty breathing due to chronic congestion after having my son 5 years ago. Over the counter and prescribed meds, I tried everything! I finally decided to do something about it and saw ENT and I found out I had a deviated septum and enlarged turbinates in both nostrils. I couldn’t enjoy most meals or do certain exercises without feeling so out of breath. I decided to get the recommended septoplasty surgery and what a difference! I can breathe so much better now and what I struggled to smell in the past due to swollen nasal passages I can now smell without difficulty. Certain perfumes/colognes I’m more sensitive to now but all in all I’m so happy with my results. Dr. Samuel Lin took good care of me pre and post operatively. I’m excited to see how I feel come the spring/summer season.
Dr Lin performed a septoplasty, turbinate reduction as well as some work on my nasal valves to increase airflow through my nose. After 1 week recovery and a followup appt my breathing capacity has increased 10-fold. I am breathing fully with both nostrils at all times. As a result this has greatly increased my quality of life and sleep as well. The most difficult part of recovery was the first 24hrs after coming out of anesthesia. The following week was uncomfortable as I had stents in my nose until the followup appointment. Immediately following stent removal I noticed a massive increase with the airflow through my nose (immediate relief). I would recommend this surgery to anyone who has discomfort or semi-restricted breathing through their nose. No more blocked noses on cold days or trouble falling asleep/snoring. I would especially recommend Dr Lin and his team as well. He was very professional with me from the start and is clearly a highly skilled surgeon. I read horror stories online about these procedures, but experienced nothing worse than a cracking headache after coming out of anesthesia.
On October 2014, I was diagnosed with Stage 2 Breast Cancer. In November the plan was to have a mastectomy and reconstruction surgery. Two weeks later I found out that my cancer had spread into my lymph nodes. This meant that I had Stage 3 Breast Cancer. I meant with Dr. Lin and he was devastated to hear the news. He knew how nervous I was and he was very supported. You would have thought I was a family member. Dr. Lin advised me that the reconstruction surgery would be damaged due to the upcoming radiation. However once the treatment was completed, we would come up with a plan together. I met with Dr. Lin a couple of times for fat graphing. He was very honest to let me know that this may not work due to radiation. He was correct. Lastly, he suggested for a implant. We had success! This was a very long journey, but I would have not wanted another doctor. Dr. Lin is so patient and his work is meticulous! He makes his patients feel important! I highly recommend Dr. Lin! He truly cares about his patients. He never makes you feel rushed during your appointments. He takes time to answer your questions. I will always be grateful, thank you!! Charlene
I am thrilled by the results of my surgery. From start to finish the doctor and staff were professional, empathetic, gentle, and thorough. Prior to my surgery I had neck and back pain, but this surgery changed all of that. Now I can easily move around, have an easier time working out, am way less stiff and sore. Thank you Doctor Lin and staff for greatly improving my quality of life and treating me with dignity and kindness.
I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Dr. Lin and his office! Everyone on his team was incredibly professional from reception to his amazing nursing staff! From the initial consult until my final post-op, they made sure that I was educated and comfortable every step of the way! I am sure they have many patients, but they made me feel like I was always a top priority throughout the whole process. After reading several positive experiences from previous patients, I chose Dr. Lin’s office, and I am so thankful that I did!
I had surgery 2 years ago first it was a big scary but with understanding it and the benefits i will get from it it was the best decision i made Dr.Lin and his staff was great i would highly recommend him the staff is the office is amazing.
I have had two surgeries done by a different surgeon for septum/sinus/breathing issues. I wasn’t happy, so I sought out someone else to handle the 3rd surgery I needed. I am only about 8 hours after coming off the operating table for septoplasty, nasal valve repair, spreader grafts, and turbinate reduction. I am thrilled. I haven’t been able to breathe from my right nostril for years. Even despite the blood, splints and swelling, I am finally actually able to breathe some through my right nostril! I did wake up fairly crabby and in A LOT of pain (which I anticipated a surgery would be painful) but I was told then my surgery was going to be more painful than usual. I sort of had to beg for pain relief in recovery room, not sure how much I was initially given to begin with, and was sent home with (5) 5mg oxycodone after this fairly invasive procedure and I’m still in quite a bit of pain. Be prepared to awake from anesthesia in IMMENSE pain. Ill probably have to call “my buddy” and buy pills for the first time in 15 years because these 5 pills are a handful short of being comfortable for the next day or two. So, maybe on that aspect, make sure you plan ahead. But otherwise Dr Lin was so thorough with listening to me (probably more than any doctor I have ever had), explaining conditions and procedures. He is a very kind man Best Doctor I have ever dealt with. His Staff Brooke and Phyllis were also incredibly kind and helpful. Thank you so much!
