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!

I highly recommend Dr. Samuel Lin for breast reduction. This was a procedure I had been wanting since my teenage years about 25 years ago. I am so happy with how all steps in the process went from my initial consultation to my most recent 6 month post-op follow up. Dr. Lin and his team genuinely listened to me and what I wanted to achieve from this surgery. I can say with certainty that I am happy with my results and honestly don’t have a single concern or regret. The most challenging part of this procedure for me personally was caring for 2 young children during recovery because you are truly limited for 6 weeks and help from others is a necessity! I always felt like I was in the best hands with Dr. Lin and his staff. He is an amazing surgeon and I recommend him without hesitation.
I had an amazing experience with Dr. Sam Lin. I went in for a rhinoplasty with a focus on the nasal tip and the results were better than I could have ever expected. I have always felt self-conscious about the tip of my nose, but after going in for a consultation I knew exactly what I was hoping for. The clear communication, along with the friendly staff, made Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center a great choice for me. I would recommend him to all of my friends and family. Thank you so much Dr. Lin!!!
From Beverly: Dr Sam was recommended to me by 2 of my doctors. He was without question the ABSOLUTE BEST choice for my breast reduction surgery. He listened to my desires and I am so pleased with my results. This surgery was a long time coming, something I have wanted to do for 20-25 years, but just to afraid of the surgery, the anesthesia to be specific. My neck, back pain, shoulder pain issues, as well as personal embarrassment due to the size of my breasts were something I dealt with forever. It finally became an issue I just couldn’t deal with any longer. It was now or never and as nervous as I was I knew that if I didn’t make the decision to go ahead with reduction surgery now I would forever regret it. I knew Dr. Sam was the doctor to perform this surgery. He is a perfectionist and I felt safe and secure with him as my doctor. I would tell anyone in my place thinking of having this procedure to definitely do it now . My only wish is that I did it years ago. Dr Sam is without question the best and everyone that works with him has been amazing. I cannot rave more about my experience.
Dr Lin is not only an amazing surgeon but also an amazing person. He takes time to understand your needs and concerns. Thank you, Dr Lin, for your lecture on what burns are. You’re awesome.
My experience through my journey with breast reconstruction following mastectomy was immeasurably positive. Dr. Lin is so very kind and so greatly skilled at what he does. He set honest and realistic expectations, and helped to guide me in any decisions in the process. I have to say that I am so very happy with the final outcome.
Dr. Sam is very pleasant and personable, as well as supportive in my journey and my recovery. He did a wonderful job on my reconstructive surgery and I feel comfortable coming back if need be.
I came in with a unique ask after a few nose injuries from sports and with hopes that Dr. Lin could tweak a few things and he and the team were very accomodating, creative and precise throughout the process. I couldn’t be happier with the result!
Dr. Sam did a rhinoplasty for my daughter in August of 2020. The process was seamless from start to finish. Dr. Sam was kind, attentive and answered all of our questions both pre- and post-op. She had very little discomfort after the surgery and the recovery was quick. As for the finished product, as my daughter says, “it is a work of art”. She is so pleased with the outcome. I highly recommend this surgeon!
