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.

I would leave 0 stars if possible.
Extremely condescending, rude, and does not listen to a single word you say. I went with a referral from my pulmonologist. He did not address any of her concerns, suggested that she didn't know was she was talking about, and referenced medications I wasn't and had never taken and conditions I don't have as a cause for my symptoms and then shrugged it off when I corrected him. He basically said there was nothing he could do for me and suggested symptom management that I had already stated did not help. He was over an hour late to the appointment and the appointment itself was less than 15 minutes long before he dismissed himself. I would never recommend him even if he were the last doctor on earth....

Visit
I waited a hour before Dr. Giant saw me and that was ok; no explanation or apology except that he was tired because he was performing surgery. This was told to me by his assistant nurse. Then the visit. It was so rushed. His arrogant and condescending demeanor was absurd. He asked me a couple of questions and then performed a procedure (nasolaryngo scope) without telling me anything. He numbed my nose, teeth, mouth, everything which was enough to keep me numbed for a day!!! He could’ve asked me if I wanted the numbness first instead of just administering. The numbing does NOT to be done to perform a nasolaryngo scope. It is an individual choice to choose whether you want it or not, but moe money to give the numbing agent. I have had this procedure done before and did not need ( or want) any numbness because the doctor was so gentle in performing it. Stay far away from this Doctor No bedside manner whatsoever. To many other great doctors out there with the whole package.

Dr. Lin is simply amazing. Wife was seen by three different Doctors over a period of time causing a lot of stress and never really fixed the problem. But today after ONE visit The issue is fixed. How can one Dr. Just go in look around And BOOM fixes the problem. It just goes to show some are Smarter then others. Thank GOD for all the real good doctors. Thank you so much Doctor Lin.

I went to see Dr Lin to treat my sinus issues. He is not in my insurance but agreed to work with insurance to complete the treatment. But unfortunately the insurance did not agree the treatment by Dr. Lin. So I have to go to another Dr. But Dr. Lin did not collect any fees from me for his office visit.

I'm very surprised at the poor reviews of Dr. Lin. I've had sinus surgery with 2 different highly regarded ENT's, but Dr. Lin is the first ENT who has worked diligently with me to PREVENT more sinus infections. I find him to be highly intelligent, personable and patient. Most importantly, I haven't had an infection in several years. I wouldn't consider going to anyone else.

I would not recommend Dr. Line at all. I've found this doctor extremely arrogant and condescending. I went to see him a few times since he ordered a bunch of tests and I needed to see test results. At the end, he was not able to fix my issue and he didn't showed the slightest that he cared, but simply said there was nothing he could do. I ended up wasting money on all those tests. When I went to another doctor, no tests were ordered (didn't even ask for any old test results) and problem was promptly resolved. This doctor lacks compassion, and minimum care for patients.

He was the first doctor to correctly diagnose my father after a year and a half of trying many doctors throughout multiple counties and practices in northern NJ. He was professional, courteous, and compassionate in providing medical care for my father. I cannot speak highly enough about Dr. Lin and his perseverance in searching for the correct diagnosis.

Dr. Lin was my last attempt to diagnose a nasal problem that I have been suffering with for a very long time. I have seen 5 ENTs before coming to Dr. Lin. He is the first one to diagnose my problem and the diagnosis is different from all the other ENTs, but I feel he is on the right track. I will need a CT scan and then we will discuss options based on the scan. I finally have HOPE that I can live comfortably again.

Avoid this doctor if you can. Too expensive, sure there good doctor who charge decent money. The reason for the visit was a recurrent swimmer ear infection for my son. It was 10 minutes visit with endoscope procedure. The charge for this was above $900 !!!!!

Dr Lin ENT has been so courteous, caring, knowledgeable, and helpful through my whole experience with the summit medical group! I'm very thankful that i was able to get his help with my brain tumor surgery!!! He checked on my every single day i was recovering in the hospital!!! 13 days! Him and Dr. Benitez spent hours taking out my pituitary macroadenoma! I'm so lucky to have such great care, even my follow up appt was very thorough, and Dr Lin obviously cares about his patients.

I have been going to Dr. Lin regularly for the past year. In my view he is very knowledgeable in his field. He is also patient, kind and gentle during those dreaded endoscopic exams. I recommend him without hesitation.

I was referred to Dr.Lin by one of his colleagues, as my issue was a serious one requiring his unique expertise. I found Dr.Lin to be a most compassionate, kind and caring physician that took his time in explaining his process to me, as well as easing my discomfort as best he could in a most uncomfortable situation. The surgery that followed was done with confidence and competence, AND the aforementioned compassion. I have been singing his praises ever since!

Saw Dr. Lin for ear ache. Came home with painful columella ( cartilage between 2 nostrils), numbed upper teeth and headache from the most uncomfotable nasolaryngo scope. The worst part is, there's no explanation of the procedure to patient before doing the prodedure.
