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!

Boston Plastic Surgery is rated 4.9 out of 5.0 based on 450 ratings.
I undertook a 4wk virtual elective in Plastic Surgery under the tutelage of Dr Samuel Lin. The experience gave me an opportunity to learn fundamental concepts such as wound healing, grafts and flap transfer as well as advanced surgical techniques for breast reconstruction, cleft lip and palate repair, face lift, rhinoplasty, hand surgery and gender reassignment. It was an intense and rapid learning curve, but Dr Lin was supportive and guided us through the program providing us with teaching, learning materials, quizzes and videos of surgical procedures. I would highly recommend the elective.
It was a pleasure to meet Dr. Lin. I am grateful for the virtual plastic surgery rotation week. It was amazing for me as a medical student in Peru to be able to learn from him. I really recommend it!
The procedure and recovery went exactly as I was told upfront. If anything the recovery was quicker than I expected.
I recommend the virtual course because it is much easier to study at your own time, in addition to taking the exams also at your own pace. Virtual classes with Dr Lin are very entertaining and he shows us content that we would otherwise not be able to see in our daily practice.
Really excellent and noteworthy to work with one of the most humble consultants I have ever came across in my surgical career. Thank you sir for every support and I strongly recommend all future students to join him for sure.
This was an amazing experience, I was able to learn a lot, full of knowledge, and Dr. Lin was a spectacular preceptor, always willing to clear all the doubs, for sure an skilled physician. 1000% woth it, I repeat amazing experience!
Dr. Lin has excellent communication skills. He possesses and demonstrates a broad range of skills. Describes the rationale for actions and decisions. Responds clearly and precisely to learner questions, connects information to broader concepts, communicates clear goals and expectations, and makes learning enjoyable. I enjoy how attentively Dr. Lin analyzes a learner by accurately measuring the learner’s knowledge, attitudes, and skills and providing useful feedback. Dr. Lin is skilled in practice and teaching because he provides effective role modeling, organizes and clarifies information, generates interest in the subject matter, organizes and controls the learning experience, balances clinical and teaching responsibilities, and assigns appropriate responsibility to the learner. One of the many qualities I admire about Dr. Lin is that he encourages the learner by emphasizing problem solving, translating specific cases into general concepts, and encouraging active participation of the learner. Dr. Lin enjoys and is enthusiastic about patient care and teaching, and he develops a supportive relationship with the learner.
Dr Lin is a great surgeon, best mentor and scientist. He is one of the leading scientists and contributors in the advancement of the plastic surgery field. Despite his very busy schedule, he always finds time to guide and support his researchers no matter what. I was lucky enough to learn from Dr Lin and grateful for all the skills he taught me. He is very personable, caring and always prioritizes his patients’ needs. I would highly recommend doctor Dr Lin, his experience and track record speaks for itself!
