Thank you for the terrific care you’ve provided me. Your calm demeanor, realistic approach was exactly what we needed in the early days of my diagnosis. The meticulous work that you performed leaves us forever in your debt. Your skills and those of your team are amazing! Best wishes to you and yours for a Merry Christmas and a healthy, happy New Year.
The reason I want to write you this card is to thank you for all you’ve done for me, during this journey in my life. But now that I’ve started to write about my gratitude, I realize that I can’t really think of words that are sufficient to convey my thankfulness. This time has been so scary for me, and your compassion and kindness toward me has been so reassuring and soothing. I can’t even tell you how much it’s meant to me. The patience and good humor you displayed in reading my letters prior to my surgery….Obviously, I have control issues! Even though I’m the patient, and you are the doctor, you always make me feel that I’m part of the team. I’m sure that in this career of yours you have come to grasp an understanding of what a woman’s breasts can mean to her; they are a somewhat sacred part of her body and self. I don’t think I even understood this until I was faced with having mine removed, due to cancer. The option of reconstruction has been one beacon of hope; the only lighthouse guiding me to a port, while I weather this storm. It’s been rough, but to carry the metaphor forward, my ship is strong, and I thank God for your light! I know I’ll be stronger at the end of all this. But what would I have done without you and your staff? I don’t know. Considering I’m having my hysterectomy next week it’s been one assault after another on my womanhood! Because of you, I know I can look forward to a future, where I’ll be having some sense of my female identity restored to me. And someday this crisis will be over, and I can help others who face the same kind of storms.
I just want you to know how pleased I am with the results of my surgery you performed in June. The results far exceed my expectations, even while I’m healing! Not only are you extremely professional, but you are caring and reassuring. I had given up hope that I would be “normal” again after the birth of my second child. You have given me a new lease on life and have restored my confidence. Your staff is wonderful and helped to add to my positive experience. Thank you again!
Words seem inadequate to express my gratitude (and amazement!) for what you have done for me. It’s been a long journey, and it takes even longer for esteem and body image to catch up with the physical changes. Thank you for being such a compassionate surgeon. Your extraordinary skills and caring are a rare combination. I hope you can instill both in surgeons you are teaching.
At this season on thanksgiving, I wanted to express my deepest gratitude to you. You have an uncommon combination of great surgical skill and confidence with humble and gentle connection with patients. I feel very lucky to be one of your patients! From my first consultation with you, I knew that you listened to me and instilled confidence by your knowing just how to proceed. I know that you have many successful years ahead. I wish you in those years to go from strength to even greater strength.
Thank you for all your concern and excellent work on my behalf. I hope this new year brings continued health and happiness to you and your family.
Want to thank you Dr. Lin for all you have done; you and your team for me back in June. You were all wonderful!
Wishing you all a joyous and healthy holiday season! Thanks for taking such great care of me-I feel so fortunate to be in the hands of the best!
Thank you for all you did for Katie.

I had rhinoplasty about 6 months ago and am so happy with my results. Dr. Lin did such an amazing job I finally feel like myself and my nose looks exactly the way I want it to look. Overall I’ve had a great experience with him and his team I highly recommend!
Everything is organized and well planned out in detail. I truly recommend doing a rotation with Dr. Lin to those who are interested in the field of plastic and reconstruction surgery. Dr. Lin provided us with so many interesting cases that I don’t think we will come across all of them within just one month. You will certainly get a glimpse of the field as a whole which is very beneficial to any medical student. I gained so much new knowledge and saw many exciting procedures I had not seen before during medical school. The articles and quizzes on the platform he provided us are exceptional and valuable. At first, I was pretty nervous since he’s the program director, but Dr. Lin is very humble and patient. I indeed did have a good time, and I’m sure you will, too, for those deciding on taking this rotation!
I recommend the clinical rotation, especially for those who want to evolve in the surgical field. Dr. Lin is a great professor who is devoted to IMG education. I attended a one-month plastic surgery rotation with him. This month, we went through important plastic surgical topics, including wound healing, reconstruction of nose, breast, and limb, etc. These topics are useful and astonishing to medical graduates. He was extremely patient and knowledgeable to address all the questions I had. I really enjoyed this virtual rotation with him.
It was incredibly instructive, and Dr. Samuel Lin’s explanations of each and every point were quite clear. I’d like to work with Dr. Samuel Lin in the future.
I had a chance to observe the work of Dr. Lin virtually and It was truly a great experience for me. He is not only a wonderful surgeon but a kind and humble teacher who loves to guide all the medical students. It was my pleasure to have a opportunity to show the work of Dr. Lin and I would very grateful to him for providing such ones. I would highly recommend all the medical student who are interested a career ahead in Plastic surgery to attend his lecture and virtual observership. It will help a lot in understanding the subject and various procedure that he is mastered in Plastic surgery.
I had the opportunity to perform a rotation with Dr.Lin, and it was great. He is an outstanding professional and person. His experience and knowledge guided my first investigation project, which made a big difference for me and my professional future.
Best way to learn about plastic surgery for those who cannot travel to the united states, you will see cases that you won’t see anywhere else. I strongly suggest the virtual educational rotation with Dr.Lin !
Dr. Lin is a master at his craft, caring about his patients, and takes time to find solutions to problems that others may dismiss. He successfully fixed another surgeon’s work, and I even traveled from NY to MA to consult with him on a new area. My story: I previously had gauged ear piercings that were about 1/2” holes, and was no longer ‘using’ them as I started modeling. My ENT at the time had offered to surgically close the holes in my attached earlobes. However, his work did not make sense; he created puckered, concave pockets in my earlobes, which actually trapped dirt, and could lead to infection. I consulted with one plastic surgeon who knew my now-former ENT, mentioned they golfed together, and claimed the work was ‘superb.’ It was not. After consulting with 6 other cosmetic surgeons in and around the Boston area, I was thankful to find Dr. Lin. He not only cares about his work, but also cares about me as a patient; he understands cosmetic surgery is about how you feel – both physically, and emotionally. He took the time to assess the area, and spoke to me with compassion and professionalism. He then took the time to create a plan to fix the area, walking me through each step. He provided realistic expectations about results, and aftercare. My earlobes healed flat without issue. My earlobes are just as dainty as they were prior to piercing, and appear unblemished. People tell me they can’t believe they were once pierced, let alone gauged! Nearly 10 years later, I traveled from New York to Boston in order to work with Dr. Lin on a unique, and very uncomfortable, back scar. I had consulted with 12 different dermatologists and dermatological surgeons, none of whom provided holistically accurate information, nor care for my person. Dr. Lin provided a unique solution no one had previously suggested, and took the time to explain additional information about the skin and body about which I was ill-informed. I’m looking forward to working with him in the future, and recommend him to absolutely everyone!
