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 had the opportunity of attending a 4 week research rotation with Dr. Lin. This clinical research experience was very inspiring and I must say that I learnt a lot from Dr. Lin during this time. Although, very busy, Dr. Lin would spend time during meetings and out of meeting hours to respond to all questions I had and was very encouraging throughout the entire research experience. I highly recommend this clinical research rotation with Dr. Lin to medical students or graduates who are interested in surgery as it offers a great opportunity to learn a lot about the surgical field.
Dr. Lin was an amazing teacher really helpful and kind, he was available to answer any doubt or concerned that I had regarding the material. I highly recommend to do a virtual Clinical Rotation to any IMG and learn about the health system in USA. I learned a lot about Plastic surgery, new techniques and different approaches and treatments. And loved the Decker platform, it is really interactive and enjoyed studying and reading articles from it. All the experience was perfect.
I had the honour of having Dr. Samuel Lin as my mentor for one of my favourite specialities/programs. I got to learn a lot more about plastic surgery with Dr. Lin than I ever did in medical school. I saw surgeries that I wouldn’t have seen if it wasn’t for Dr. Lin’s program. He had the whole month planned out for his students since day 1 – it was extremely well balanced including reading material, testing material, audio/visual material and his personal slides/surgeries to top it all off. He addressed all my queries with extreme patience and helped me clear my concepts. It was truly amazing to have him as my mentor for this month long program, and it’s the only time I will ever say, I wish I got to study a little more with him.
GREAT PHYSICIAN! Explains everything in a clear and concise manner. I highly recommend taking this Plastic Surgery elective with Dr. Lin!
I would really recommend this clinical rotation to every student who wants to be in the surgery field, especially the ones interested in plastic and reconstructive surgery. You go from learning the basic plastic surgery principles to very specific topics. I was impressed by the detailed information you are able to learn in every procedure. You have the opportunity to view and discuss with the Doctor very rare and interesting cases and procedures. The feedback and discussion from the Doctor is invaluable.
I attended a 4 week plastic surgery rotation with Dr.Lin. He is a great professor and has conducted an amazing course. I learned so much from him in the short amount of time I was able to spend with him. He does a fantastic job of encouraging you to get involved and clarifies any doubts you may have through out the course. I highly recommend attending his rotation to anyone who has the opportunity.
Dr. Lin was an exceptional teacher and leader. I was exposed to many facets of plastic surgery in his course that I wouldn’t otherwise in any other elective. I highly recommend his elective to any student who is passionate about pursuing a career in Plastic and reconstructive surgery.
I had a breast reduction and lift about 3 months ago, I could not ask for a better doctor than Dr. Lin. They took very good care of me before and after the surgery, I had common complications with my wounds (delayed healing), but the doctor was always very receptive and answered all my questions, if I had to go the same day because I was feeling pain, the office was always opened to check me. My breasts are now symmetric and perky, I barely see the scar. I am very happy with the outcome of the surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Lin and his staff for their expertise and professionalism. He truly changed my life, no more back pain.
