Physician and staff were great. I was in and out in less than an hour and plan to return in a few weeks.

Dr. Lin NEVER did an actual exam of my back. He never even touched me until he stuck a needle in my spine. I was told it would give me some relief. It lasted all of 2 days. I went to PT for months, still in pain. The pain got so much worse, but felt different. It was originating from my sciatic nerve. I was in screaming pain. I did my own research and thought it was a spamming muscle in my left butt cheek. So, I made an appointment to see Dr. Lin again. Just like before, he didn't check range of motion,he didn't ask what motions caused pain, He told me that the o ly thing that would get me out of pain was surgery. I was shocked. I specifically asked wether there was any chance the pain could be something other than a herniated disc? "No, that's not possible", was his response. I was stunned and didn't know what to say. I was in a ton of pain and really felt it wasn't from the disc. I told him I wanted to go back to PT, and give it more time. I left, and sat in my car and cried to my husband on the phone. I felt so defeated and the pain was excruciating. I went back inside and let them know I had changed my mind. I ended up taking a cancellation spot for about 3 weeks out. I went home, thought about it for a few days, and saw my PT. Upon leaving the Physical Therapist, I sent Dr. Lin's nurse a message that I was canceling my surgery. Her response was sparky, and she seemed to respond as though I were attacking her personally. It was very unprofessional, and solidified my decision to NEVER SET FOOT IN THAT PRACTICE EVER AGAIN. Steer clear of Dr. Lin. I found out today that he is being sued for malpractice! Not on me MF'er! This guy is a nightmare.

Dr. Lin told me there was nothing he could do for me after a failed surgery of imPlanting a Scs. Went to a small town an hour away and by the third visit I was scheduled for surgery due tip spinal stenosis in my L-3,4, and 5. Had great relief. Going in to surgery to have SCS removed by him. Seemed nice at first but then seemed to be more sarcastic and very uncaring.

This surgeon is not good. Not ethical, lacks knowledge. Surgeon is not recommended as he will perform surgery on anyone who will pay him.
