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.

Team was super professional, knowledgeable and responsive!August 27, 2024
Had a revision septorhinoplasty with Doctor Lin on June 17th. The result is incredible, my breathing is better and my allergies have subsided. Additionally, my singing voice is better than ever! It also is cosmetically straight which is a huge bonus.August 20, 2024
Dr. Lin and his team took wonderful care of me before during and after my procedure. Dr. Lin answered all of my questions and took the time to explain all the options to me. He never made me feel rushed. My results are more than I could have hoped for and I am so happy that I decided to go ahead and have Dr. Lin as my surgeon.August 20, 2024
My whole life I had challenges with my breathing. The doctors I visited always reassured me that everything is just fine with my nose. After finally receiving an OK for surgery, Dr. Lin and his team performed a septoplasty. The process of arranging the procedure and the surgery itself went smoothly. I received focused attention from everyone in Dr. Lin's office and on his medical team. After 50 years of suffering I can breathe easily now. Thank you Dr. Lin!August 20, 2024
Just had my six-month follow-up after my septoplasty/rhinoplasty. Everything is wonderful, and working well! I can't stress enough how happy I have been with Dr. Samuel Lin and his team at Beth Israel. Take the steps towards breathing better!August 20, 2024

Dr Lin is an incredibly talented and kind surgeon. If you are considering DIEP flap surgery he is the surgeon you want! His work is amazing. He takes the time to explain everything and is always extremely patient with questions/concerns. All of the staff are also extremely kind and helpful. HIGHLY recommend!August 13, 2024
I had a double mastectomy with deep flap reconstruction with Dr. Lin 3 years ago. This surgery had longer recovery time than other reconstruction options, but this was a better choice for me in the long run, I wanted to avoid dealing with implants in the future. Recovery took a while, my abdomen was weak after surgery, but it was worth it. Now, 3 years later, my scars are minimal, my core strength is getting better and better, and I am still happy with my surgical choices. Dr. Lin and his team did a great job! Thank you!!August 06, 2024
I came in looking to have my deviated septum and nasal valve repaired. Before my septoplasty, I had very little air flow out of my nose. This impacted a plethora of factors in my life. I am happy to say that I can breathe out of both sides of my nose without issue now. After Dr. Lin repaired my nasal valve, my life has been completely changed. After struggling to sleep my whole life, my entire sleep experience has changed. I went from waking up 4-5 times a night to sleeping all the way through until my alarm. This has resulted in more energy throughout the day, a clearer head, and an overall more positive outlook towards life. Dr. Lin and his staff were excellent throughout this entire process, and I would recommend them to everyone I know.August 06, 2024
This journey that I've been on for 3 years has been so positive! The doctors and staff are amazing!August 06, 2024
