Testimonials and Reviews

Thank you for the wonderful compassionate care I received under your care. You and your staff are amazing. It is clear to me that you consider the impact of your work on a very nervous patient like me.

After meeting with several “top” plastic surgeons in the Boston area, my daughter and I unanimously selected Dr. Lin to perform her procedure. He could not have been better!!! He has a world-class background and a conservative thought process. In addition, he was incredibly supportive and comforting throughout. Needless to state, her outcome was as he planned and we are thrilled.

Excellent demeanor. Listened to my concerns and made suggestions that would be best for me. Very tuned in to the patient, not rushed or pushing his advice. A 5-star dr.

Based upon my own experience, Dr. Lin is a very talented and skilled surgeon. He was also very easy and pleasant to work with. He has a calm and reassuring manner about him and encouraged input from me which I appreciated. I would have no hesitation to return to Dr. Lin for future procedures and can highly recommend him!

My motivation for the eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) was medical in nature that is to assist with my peripheral vision. However it was also cosmetic as I am in my early to middle 50s. and my eyes clearly demonstrated my age…With Dr. Lin there were no cons, only pros involved in the entire process. Dr. Lin was highly professional, both in evaluating me as a candidate for these operations, in setting expectations, and during post-operative followups. The ultimate outcome, for both procedures, was outstanding. Thanks to Dr. Lin and staff, years were taken off my appearance, particularly around my eyes, and my nose has a much better shape. I’m very pleased w/ the outcome and would recommend Dr. Lin to anybody needing plastic surgery w/out reservation.

My experience with Dr. Lin was truly amazing. From the moment I met him I knew that he was the right surgeon for me. He is by far the nicest, most approachable and down to earth surgeon I have ever met. He is kind, caring, humble, takes time to listen to you, and explains everything/addresses concerns.

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Samuel Lin. He performed my septoplasty surgery, and the results have been life-changing — I can finally breathe comfortably again. Dr. Lin was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and thorough in explaining every step of the process. His professionalism and attention to detail made me feel completely at ease before, during, and after the procedure. The recovery was smooth, and the improvement in my breathing has been remarkable. I highly recommend Dr. Lin to anyone considering septoplasty or any ENT-related surgery — he’s truly exceptional.
Dr. Lin made the process easy and comfortable for me. The consultations were very informative and gave me a lot of confidence going into surgery. The recovery process was fairly easy, and I was able to return to most normal activities, including work, after one week (when I got my cast off). I love my cosmetic results, but I can also breathe so much better than before. I highly recommend Dr. Lin for any cosmetic or internal nasal surgery.
I had a closed rhinoplasty with Dr. Lin to smooth a sharp, bony bump on my nose bridge, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Dr. Lin is by far the best doctor I’ve ever been to, he truly listens and makes the process as easy and comfortable as possible. He is very skilled and his team is incredible: Brooke was so friendly and explained every detail for billing/logistics, Jaimie the nurse was so amazing and comforting, and the anesthesiologist was also very nice and calming (especially impressive since I’m terrified of needles). I was nervous going in, but they all made me feel completely safe and cared for. The surgery itself was smooth, and my recovery was almost unbelievably easy – I had no pain, minimal swelling, barely any bruising, and only needed two Tylenols total. Dr. Lin and his team truly advocate for their patients. They worked around my busy schedule and even stepped in to help resolve a hospital billing error on my behalf. It’s rare to find a doctor and team who genuinely care this much and I couldn’t recommend them more.
Doctor Lin and all the residents and nurses were super helpful and the surgery significantly helped my breathing. Thank you!
I had an incredible experience with Dr. Lin and everyone in his office. Any and every question or concern I had was addressed in detail, which coming from an overthinker, was extremely helpful. The surgery and recovery process was far smoother than anything I could have expected and the end result was phenomenal. I can now breathe through my nose better than I ever thought possible!
I was thrilled to get to work with Dr Lin. My experience overall was easy, supportive and all my questions were answered all throughout the process. Even when I changed the areas I wanted to focus on, Dr Lin and team made that switch seamless and accomplished all my goals. I had two major procedures done and my results were exactly as described. During the healing process after surgery I was able to ask all kinds of questions and get support quickly. From start to finish I’m thrilled with the results and with my experience overall.
To begin my left nostril was 95% blocked. A great effort was required to blow my nose. Irrigate with saline, block right nostril and blow and rinse for several minutes. After much research I chose Dr. Samuel Lin to correct the problem with septoplasty and other procedures. 8 days after surgery, nasal splints are removed. The result are immediate relief and clear breathing through my nose for first time in a couple years. I followed the doctors protocol of saline rinsing, no blowing my nose, and not submerging under water. Also avoided pressure on nose or wearing glasses. My experience was life changing. I can breath freely and walking and running is easier. Sleep is vastly improved. I also had a mass at the back of my nose Dr. Lin observed and removed knowing it that would improve my breathing also. I had post nasal drip that is almost completely resolved also. Possibly from removal of the mass. I am thankful I chose Dr. Lin for my surgery. The staff here at Beth Israel Deaconess plastic surgery have all been helpful. Every minor irritant would cause my nose to clog up. Mowing the lawn and walking or driving in exhaust filled traffic. I have none of those issues now. I suggest following Dr. Lin’s protocols for recovery to the letter for a completely successful outcome.
Very amazing doctor! had a breathing issue and had previous surgery with another doctor but the issue wasn’t corrected. Dr.Lin understood my concerns and did an amazing job. He got rid of my bump and fixed my breathing issue.
