Testimonials and Reviews

Dr L. helped me with the double mastectomy procedure back in 2020. It’s been more than 2 years now and I really appreciate the good work he had done.

Great result! Reduction mammoplasty changed my life. Recovery was not hard, minimal scarring. Dr. Sam did a fab job!

Had a functional breathing problem fixed with Dr. Lin. 2 years post surgery now and I am doing much better.

Dr. Samuel L is absolutely amazing!! Mastectomy where?? I personally didn’t want implants, so I opted for a more difficult procedure. When I tell you my symmetry is perfect… I mean perfect PERFECT!! I’ve got a few more steps but I am completely satisfied with my results so far!!!

Dr. L and his staff were absolutely wonderful. They were communicative and detailed in terms of the process. On the night of my procedure, Dr. L called and again walked me through the process. I have always been unsettled with the appearance of my nose. Prior to deciding to have surgery, I had tried thread and fillers on my nose. I finally took the big step and I could not be happier with the outcome. If you are weighing your options, don’t be afraid to do that consult.

Reduction mammaplasty was the best decision to get done, it relived all my back and shoulder pain, DR. L. Is great

I was diagnosed with DCIS breast cancer Stage 1 in October 2021 and opted for a double mastectomy two months later. I then decided to have reconstruction with silicone implants in March 2022. It was definitely a decision I regretted because I was quite unhappy with the look and feel of them. After researching other options, I was then referred to my microsurgeon, Dr. Samuel Lin, and after a consultation with him, I knew this was the surgeon I wanted to perform my DIEP Flap surgery. I am now four weeks out of surgery and could not be happier. Not only do I look better, I FEEL so much better because this is my own tissue and not a foreign body in my breasts. The surgery and recovery is a long procedure, but I would do it again in a second due to the results. I also can’t recommend Dr. Lin more, as he is the most compassionate, understanding and accomplished plastic surgeon in this specialized field. His staff is also wonderful. I’m healing well and looking forward to getting my life back on track after a devastating diagnosis of breast cancer. Thank you so very much, Dr. Lin.

I recently enjoyed the wonderful months working with Dr. Lin on both a research rotation and a virtual clinical rotation separately in plastic surgery field. Virtual Clinical Rotation: I am really grateful to Dr. Lin. Through this program, I got the chance to work with a renowned physician who is on the Mt Rushmore of plastic surgeons, learn from him, get his direction, increase my understanding of the specialty, and, most importantly, discover techniques that I had never heard of or seen before. This program provided a thorough explanation of what plastic and reconstructive surgery entails. I believe I have acquired an incredible quality of knowledge throughout my four-week rotation, and I’ve enjoyed every moment of it. Dr. Lin addressed all of our questions in a straightforward, comprehensive manner, made study interactive asking questions and listened to what we stated. I can say that he has created a superb course when it comes to instructing both novice and seasoned students. I am motivated to learn more about this fascinating profession after viewing a variety of cutting-edge procedures and realizing that there is no physical restriction that a qualified and highly skilled plastic surgeon cannot cure. My expectations were exceeded, I dare say. Research Rotation: For a novice like me, it was really informative and a fantastic place to begin my research work under the great mentorship of Dr Lin. During course I had multiple ideas which were unfortunately taken by other research fellows I was feeling desolate regarding that BUT Dr. Lin cheered me up by insisting on other ideas, ways and also, we laughed about it by doing that it relaxed my mind immensely for which I am again grateful to him. This was a highlight for me apart from that this course had provided enough materials to know about systematic review, which is the highest form of evidence. In order to advance our research endeavor, he connected with other senior research fellows at the completion and committed to stay in touch. I do strongly encourage these courses to everyone interested in research, not simply just in the field of plastic surgery.
