Patient Reviews
Sep 15, 2024
I was fortunate to get a last-minute appointment with Dr. Lin for my glaucoma issue. He quickly grasped the problem, responded promptly, and developed a treatment plan right away. Dr. Lin doesn't dismiss patient concerns or complaints; instead, he listens attentively. After identifying the issue, he offers options while taking patient concerns into account. I truly appreciate the opportunity to be connected with him and his team.
