- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Excellent Work, Caring Provider
Dr. Lin is a master at his craft, caring about his patients, and takes time to find solutions to problems that others may dismiss. He successfully fixed another surgeon’s work, and I even traveled from NY to MA to consult with him on a new area.
My story: I previously had gauged ear piercings that were about 1/2” holes, and was no longer ‘using’ them as I started modeling. My ENT at the time had offered to surgically close the holes in my attached earlobes. However, his work did not make sense; he created puckered, concave pockets in my earlobes, which actually trapped dirt, and could lead to infection.
I consulted with one plastic surgeon who knew my now-former ENT, mentioned they golfed together, and claimed the work was ‘superb.’ It was not.
After consulting with 6 other cosmetic surgeons in and around the Boston area, I was thankful to find Dr. Lin.
He not only cares about his work, but also cares about me as a patient; he understands cosmetic surgery is about how you feel - both physically, and emotionally.
He took the time to assess the area, and spoke to me with compassion and professionalism.
He then took the time to create a plan to fix the area, walking me through each step. He provided realistic expectations about results, and aftercare.
My earlobes healed flat without issue. My earlobes are just as dainty as they were prior to piercing, and appear unblemished. People tell me they can’t believe they were once pierced, let alone gauged!
Nearly 10 years later, I traveled from New York to Boston in order to work with Dr. Lin on a unique, and very uncomfortable, back scar. I had consulted with 12 different dermatologists and dermatological surgeons, none of whom provided holistically accurate information, nor care for my person.
Dr. Lin provided a unique solution no one had previously suggested, and took the time to explain additional information about the skin and body about which I was ill-informed.
I’m looking forward to working with him in the future, and recommend him to absolutely everyone!
