Testimonials

The best rotation I have ever had and Dr Lin is both amazing and inspirational. The rotation was very well structured starting off with fundamentals and moving on to more advanced topics that require us to apply what we have learnt. This is a must do rotation for anyone who is considering Plastic Surgery as a career.

I had an amazing experience in virtual rotation at Harvard Plastic Surgery Integrated program. You have all the resources for a intensive month of study as videos, scientific articles, testings, lectures. I really recommend this for other medical students or medical graduated.

I took my first consultation appointment on February 2021 and got a slot in May 17th. I was so excited to meet the doc based on reviews but got a voice msg on 16th May evening saying that the appointment is canceled and told to give a call to reschedule.I tried to call and emailed them but no response. I was kind of heartbroken at that point as I was looking to get a nose job for years and I had hope that this is going to work out with Dr Lin. I was waiting for 3 months to get a consultation and they didn't show enough courtesy to acknowledge their fault and never attempted to rectify it.

I recently had a cosmetic rhinoplasty and I am so happy with my results! I’m not very good at expressing/explaining myself but he was spot on with what I wanted. He made sure that we were going for the results I wanted. Dr.Lin went above and beyond ensuring that I felt safe and secured during the procedure. My surgery was Monday morning and what made me feel so secure was that he called me the night before the surgery making sure I was okay and if i had concerns or questions. I can honestly say that Dr. Lin is a very dedicated person and very knowledgeable. Him and his team are all excellent. I can’t thank him enough for all he’s done.

Dr Samual Lin corrected a lack of facial symmetry issue due to a poor result from plastic surgery. His expertise and skills provided facial symmetry and made me feel confident of my appearance. In addition he corrected a deviated septum which allows me to enjoy a good night sleep, which I am forever grateful.

I’m very grateful for the opportunity to learn from Dr. Lin! Dr. Lin presented all the materials and answered all my questions very clearly, and I especially loved the surgery videos which are very well-presented and to me felt like I was watching the live surgery. I truly learned a whole lot from the course, from the fundamentals of plastic surgery to the most interesting novel techniques and I feel like this course not only opened my eyes but also set me on my path as an aspiring plastic surgeon. It’s certainly been a very exciting month of learning and I really hope to delve deeper into plastic surgery in the future!

As a medical student with long-standing nasal congestion, I was wary about getting a procedure done before trying medications first. I did not find too much relief from the nasal sprays and eventually sought Dr. Lin out from a trusted referral. His office was organized and usually very responsive, and I went to see him for 2 visits before the surgery itself. I appreciated Dr. Lin's bedside manner and he did not push any particular procedure on me before I made my own decision. I eventually decided to get surgery at BIDMC with Dr. Lin, and my patient care experience was as smooth as possible. I am now finished with the recovery period, and am so happy that I decided to go through the process! I had an anatomical problem that only surgery could fix, and I am thankful to Dr. Lin for guiding me through a stressful and time-sensitive journey!

After being treated extremely well by Dr. Lin and his staff at BIDMC, I highly recommend anyone considering to have a breast reduction. After having 4 children and dealing with chronic neck and back pain, I decided to have the surgery. Dr. Lin and his staff from the beginning have been very informative and attentive to any of my concerns and needs. I could have not picked a better surgeon and a better team to care for me. I can say with the biggest smile on my face since the surgery I have no neck pain and no back pain, but also that I have better self esteem because not only am I able to do more but that my shirts fit better and I look better as well. Forever grateful for the excellent care I received from the very beginning. Thank you Dr. Lin and the office! 🙂

Dr. Lin is the best. After going to Beth Israel's Cancer Center, I was referred to Dr. Lin and spoke with them (was a scary time of course ) . Everyone from 2 employees at the desk including Stacy these days, to nurses & physician's assistants, " everyone" has treated me so well. And kept me calm. All of the staff there is very polite. They were great to answer all my questions, results of surgeries were really great. This is a supportive team that I visit once a year - for 5 years - and it is this team I praise so much who helps me move forward. Thank you Dr. Lin and all your colleagues, TRUST in your doctors - he's at Beth Israel Deaconess - an amazing medical center !

My experience with Dr. Lin’s plastic surgery virtual telehealth rotation has been invaluable. I had an amazing time learning from Dr. Lin who, from day 1, showed impeccable professionalism and an eager enthusiasm towards teaching. I found myself at ease with Dr. Lin and learned a great deal of plastic surgery. The course, in fact, not only lays a solid foundation on the principles of reconstructive surgery but also dives deep into the vast subfields of burn, craniofacial, head and neck, hand and lower extremity, breast, aesthetic and gender affirmation surgery. I cannot stress enough how this rotation shaped me into a better, well-rounded physician and how grateful I am for the precious time spent with Dr. Lin. I believe this experience was crucial in leading me towards pursuing plastic surgery as my residency choice and I now consider myself even more determined to match into this fascinating field. I will look up to Dr. Lin as an example for my future career. It is once in a lifetime opportunity to learn from such talented and yet humble plastic surgeon as Dr. Lin and I would highly suggest it to my fellow colleagues.
