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.

Kind, Caring, Easy to Talk to

Talking to Dr. Lin is like talking to a brother. He is low key and puts me at ease and I feel very comfortable sharing my condition with him. In addition to medication, Dr. Lin also suggests certain vitamins, Tai-Chi, calming music, natural remedies...etc that are specific to my situation. I had a situation early on and Dr. Lin responded promptly. With Dr. Lin around, I know my mental being is in good hands. I also referred a friend to Dr. Lin and she thinks highly of Dr. Lin as well.

It was distressing to see Dr. Jonson Lin depart from my medical group. I could not have thanked him enough for leaving me more grounded than I ever felt before.

I am the father of the boy discussed in the poor review that was left on July 29th. The reason why there is a clash of opinions on Dr. Lin's practice is because Dr. Lin does not play the games that parents have started in the wars with their children. He focuses solely on the best interest of his patients. He truly fought for my son's true needs and I have the utmost respect for him for it. My son does currently live with me now and is thriving in school and behavior thanks to Dr. Lin's help.

Dr Lin was seeing my son. I have to say I'm glad he quit. He would change my sons meds with out discussing it with me and when I questioned him about the increase he would argue with me telling me he knew what was best for my son . I have recently found out he is still prescribing meds for my son when he's in his dad's care. His actions can kill my son I don't trust him at all.
