Testimonials and Reviews

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!

Dr. Samuel Lin is an amazingly talented and experienced surgeon! From the first time I spoke with him, I felt comfortable and in good hands. He performed a bilateral total capsulectomy on me after 2 years of experiencing BII symptoms and raptured implant. Now I feel like Dr. Lin gave me my life back, I feel alive and look alive again. I’m still amazed with how small incisions I have. Other than that I would like to mention how very little pain after the surgery I had, which shows how big of professional he is. I have and will recommend Dr. Lin to anyone I know. This was the best decision I ever made. He and his staff were absolutely wonderful through my whole experience! Thank you Dr. Lin! ❤️
If you are seeking a great plastic surgeon in the Boston Mass area, I highly recommend Dr. Samuel Lin. Dr. Lin and his entire team were very supportive throughout my whole process of getting my breast surgery in 2020. I still had continued support during my aftercare and during my entire healing process which was not as easy or hard, but new. Things you should consider is the scarring and nipple loss sensation that can happen. My scars are not that bad and are becoming lighter in coloration as I have used different products to help support that. Only one nipple has partial sensation loss that comes and goes but I utilize amazing therapeutic techniques that helps support stimulation. Again very minor after affects from my surgery but I am happy I did it and it has improved certain areas of my movement, comfort, and wellness. Most important is that I have recovered very well! Hopefully someone will find some inspiration in my story.
I really wish I had done this years ago. I was referred to Dr. Sam Lin after a consult with Dr. Caradona when I noticed increased issues with breathing through my nose and fairly severe snoring. After a nasal endoscopy I saw that I had a significant deviated septum on the right and a deviation on the left. This explained why breath right strips, irrigation, decongestants, etc. never worked for me. After meeting with Dr. Lin and his fellow we scheduled a septoplasty and turbinate reduction. The day of surgery the entire care team were incredibly kind and friendly. I woke up in recovery and had very little pain. I had to ask the nurse if Anesthesia had given me any painkillers and they hadn’t, just the Tylenol before the operation. I was warned the first few weeks of recovery can be rough. I apparently lucked out as it was very smooth. I was able to manage the pain with Tylenol alone and slept with my head elevated under a wedge pillow I bought on Amazon and a humidifier. I regularly irrigated with saline as instructed and changed the bandage regularly. I took a week out of work to recover and spent most of it playing video games and reading. Not a bad week! Swelling was way down after a week and when I had the splints taken out it was amazing. I have never been able to breath so easily. In the months since the procedure I am sleeping better, snoring has improved, and my breathing is way better. In short I am so thankful that I went to Dr. Lin and his team and wish I did it years earlier!

I had been thinking about getting a neck lift for a few years. I tried all kinds of things to avoid surgery but nothing worked and was expensive. I decided to have a consultation with Dr. Lin after hearing compliments from other doctors about his work and and from patient on-line reviews. When I met with Dr. Lin, I immediately felt comfortable and confident he was the right doctor for me. I never felt rushed, he answered any questions that I had and explained what he would do during the procedure. I am so glad I decided to have the surgery. Dr. Lin was very reassuring days leading up to the surgery. I am presently 8 weeks out and couldn’t be happier! I was thrilled with the results on the 3rd day after surgery even with some swelling. I have had many compliments so far and know my neck will look even better in a couple months. I would highly recommend Dr. Samuel Lin to anyone.

Excellent course on fundamentals of plastic surgery. Highly recommend for anyone going into plastics or even general surgery (like myself). Well-balanced course between didactics, discussion, and procedure videos. By taking this course, you will learn a great deal to be able to apply in future practice. Dr. Lin is, without a doubt, the best in the field. Consider myself extremely lucky to learn from surgeon with a wealth of knowledge and experience.
Would highly recommend the course with Dr. Lin. I had an amazing opportunity to learn from a professor who is eager to teach and review any lingering questions. We covered many topics, here are are some I enjoyed the most: • Wound healing (burns, flaps, and grafts) • Aesthetic surgery • Craniofacial head and neck surgery • Breast surgical techniques and gender affirming surgery • Extremity injury, trauma, and reconstruction I am grateful for this experience and know that future students will benefit from Dr. Lin’s dedication to mentoring and teaching.
