I was not feeling well for so long and once I saw Dr. Lin he diagnosed me and had me feeling much better very quickly. I can't say enough of how professional and knowledgable he was and helped me to understand exactly what I need to do to start feeling better.

I had septoplasty/turbinectomy surgery just over a week ago and already feel great. I was highly impressed with Dr. Lin's attentiveness, knowledge and care. He addressed all of my questions and concerns and after just a few days, I feel great and am breathing better. In addition, Mt Sinai Hospital was excellent. For such a large hospital, they treated me with the utmost care, concern and respect.

I was so thrilled that Dr. Lin did my tonsillectomy. It's a pretty scary procedure, and he and his staff made the process extremely smooth and painless for me. After the surgery, they have been there for me every step of the way and have made my recovery as easy as possible. I would highly, highly recommend Dr. Lin and the ENT and Allergy Associates.

I was very pleased with Dr Lin. He was very attentive to my needs and asked the need questions. When it came to the diagnoses he said that we could handle with medication or a CT scan and in the end went with medication and if they didn't work a CT scan. Unlike some doctors he allowed me to decide and didn't pressure me either way. I would definitely recommend Dr. Lin

I was very pleased with the medical care I recieved from Dr. Lin. I went to him for rhinoplasty surgery as I was unhappy with the look of my nose. He did a thorough exam and consultation regarding what I was looking for. After my few weeks of recovery I am extremely happy with the results! I highly recommend him as a plastic surgeon.

Fantastic! I highly recommend his service. I had a very large antral-choanal polyp that had developed over the years effectily blocking my ability to breath but due to Dr. Lin's skills, my post-surgery recovery was uneventful, I was able to breath fully upon waking and never felt a thing! There was a point were I was wondering if anything had actually been done - the post-op was so smooth (it had - I could breath again!). Follow-ups were delightful and Dr. Lin patiently answered not only all my questions but my wife's as well (even over the phone). A great physician and a great person too. Fantastic bedside manner and he patiently answered all my questions and was thorough, cautious, and left nothing to chance. Dr. Lin - THANK YOU!

Dr. Lin is an extremely professional and qualified ENT. He was very attentive to my medical issues and had a warm beside manner. Dr. Lin took the time to listen to me in the exam room, which is rare in these days of "fast food" medicine, and he was very responsive in addressing any questions or concerns that I had.
