Patient Reviews
Aug 29, 2024
Upon arrival was a very convenient valet parking. (Valet was free and they would not take a tip. I would suggest you be allowed to tip). The check in process was timely, i did check in online, which I’m sure saved sometime. My appointment was on time, the staff was personable and professional. Dr. Lin explained my exam in detail and answered all my questions clearly, very much appreciated.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
