Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Erin Lin is very helpful and we would like to recommend her to the peer patient. Thank you.

My experience was as good as it could possibly have been. Dr. Lin spent as much time as we needed, answering questions and explaining everything that was going to happen.

Doctor and nurses use hand sanitizer when leaving room not when entering. I remembered that question from previous surveys and made sure to observe them.

I arrived 15 minutes ahead of the 3:00 PM appointment. I waited an hour to be seen. Schedulers need to be trained on types of appointments and schedule accordingly. Stop trying to cram patients for rushed service to meet quotas

She is an angel and blessing
I recently diagnosed with breast cancer, Dr Erin H Lin is my surgeon, she is amazing taking care of all what I need, educating me about my case, referring me to highly professional doctors, I never worried about what will be next as she prepared everything for me to the level I see that she is an angel from heaven not only a regular surgeon. Her staff is amazing so nice people, nurse Ms Hazel, all the medical assistant, all are amazing. I thank God for her and for her team and I couldn’t find enough words to thank her enough.Abeer Nashed

Best caring doctor!
I went with her after being diagnosed with breast cancer. She did my surgery to remove my breast. Such a caring and knowledgeable doctor. I thank God so much for putting her in my path during such a difficult part of my life. Thank you Dr. for caring for your patients and doing your job with such love and care.
