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.
Want to thank you Dr. Lin for all you have done; you and your team for me back in June. You were all wonderful!

Very happy with the results, everything was explained straight forward and the process wasn’t bad at all and totally worth it, I sleep a lot better now and overall my lifestyle has improved. Thank you to Dr.Lin and his team, cannot thank you enough! Please go see him!June 10, 2025
Five stars all around. My only suggestion is better communication with the front staff/scheduling/returning calls. Dr Lin was always readily available and reassuring. Excellent surgeon! Amazing bedside manner and extremely caring.June 10, 2025
If you're reading this and you're on the fence about whether or not to get a septoplasty, I can tell you that a lifetime of effortless breathing is 1,000% worth it. Overall I had an easy experience from consultation, to surgery, to post-operative care. Dr. Lin and his team are incredibly skilled in this procedure - before my surgery I was reading up on other people's recovery stories, and the recovery I had was far easier than anything I had imagined thanks to the way Dr. Lin performs this surgery. I would especially recommend him for septoplasty because he takes extra preventative measures against nasal perforations, which can occur post-operatively and require additional surgeries to repair. Since Dr. Lin performs surgery on patients with nasal perforations, he ensures that his septoplasty patients have the best chance possible against developing them post-op. I am about 2 months out and breathing better than I ever have in my life, and my only regret is that I wish I got this surgery sooner. Thank you Dr. Lin!June 03, 2025
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
