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. Lin and his team have given me the best experience. Everyone from Office Manager Phyllis, the office staff, PAs and training Fellows, to the people at Beth Israel Hospital Surgery were always available to answer questions and offer reassurance. I wish I could remember everyone's name to say thank-you.May 20, 2025
It has been a great experience for me. My septum was severely deviated. I was getting migraines all the time. I slept only 3-4 hours a night. My blood oxygen level was consistently at a 95. Since my surgery I am sleeping through the night. My blood oxygen level is consistently at 100. I’m no longer exhausted all the time! My brain fog from lack of sleep is gone. I am no longer snoring. My cat used to wake me up several times a night. In hindsight I think it’s because I would stop breathing. Since my surgery I haven’t seen her at all at night. It was well worth having this procedure!May 20, 2025
Dr. Lin and his associate, Dr. Mundra, are outstanding surgeons and are very thorough and caring with the follow-up as well. They also work with an outstanding team of nurses. I am very pleased and grateful!May 20, 2025
Had a great experience getting a breast reduction surgery! Dr Lin was professional and kind. I am so happy with my results!I was able to get my surgery done within a few months of my first visit!May 13, 2025
What a journey this has been. When I got the news of a breast cancer diagnosis, I first faced it and allowed myself time to process before jumping into fight mode. Thereafter, I had the awesome pleasure of meeting Dr. Lin and was placed in his care for reconstructive surgery. There were medical bumps in the road, but there was such assurance when I felt and knew that I was in amazingly capable and kind hands. I knew what was happening, when, and why throughout the process and I felt heard by Dr. Lin and the entire staff when I had concerns. I have experienced an amazing result and I am grateful for the skills, professionalism, and thoughtfulness I was blessed to received. Many thanks to Dr. Lin and Team!May 13, 2025
Dr. Lin did a great job. He is understanding, patient, and reassuring. He does a good job explaining and managing expectations. At times the front desk was a hit or miss in terms of how helpful they were, but overall I had a great experience and I would choose Dr. Lin all over again!May 13, 2025
I recently had a neck lift with Dr Lin . I am now 3 months post op and I cant say enough about the care I received, everything from the start was professional, caring and transparent, Dr Lin listened to what I wanted and my end results are more than I expected, I am no longer self conscience about my aging neck and I feel I look ten years younger, my results are natural and I feel beautiful. I would highly recommend Dr Lin and his team.May 06, 2025
Had a Septoplasty and Rhinoplasty to fix a deviated septum and change the shape. Dr. Lin and his team were great from the setup process, the surgery, and the follow up. I am not 6 weeks out from surgery and breathing has improved dramatically, and am pleased with the shape of my nose. Would highly recommend the team here.May 06, 2025
My name is Sue I have just finished up the dep flap process and reconstruction with Dr. Lin. It was the best decision I made after my masectomy. The fact that the reconstruction made my breast felt like a real breast as soon as the surgery was done was important to me and it meant not having anything foreign in my body. Dr. Lin and his whole team were excellent with every question and after care. I would recommend this process to anyone considering it for reconstruction. Thank you Dr. Lin!!April 29, 2025
My appointments with Dr. Lin and his staff went very well and were very thorough from start to finish. Everything was explained to me before the surgery as to what to expect. B.I.D. staff in Needham were wonderful and caring too. I wish I had done this years ago.April 29, 2025
