Dr Ken was great, straight to the point, made things easy to understand and had a really nice office. The only thing I didn't like was the paperwork I had to fill out when I got to the office. I filled out and provided all of that info when I made my apt on Zocdoc and the receptionist said that was different paperwork. In the end I provided the same info twice and it was a waste of my time.

Dr. Lin is truly professional in his approach with my eye care. He explains everything in a way laymen can understand. His friendly and professional manner make it a pleasure to keep appointments. I wholeheartedly, without any reservation, would recommend Dr. Lin for eye care.
April 8, 2016Roosevelt Y.Verified patient
He is straightforward and thorough, making certain that I understood the details of my eyes examination results. Very personable and friendly also.
January 18, 2016Elva C.Verified patient
Professional skills unquestioned.
Outstanding communications with none of the usual surgeon 's ego.
Speaks to a laymen as an adult, not a hearing impaired child from outer space. (Hope this doesn't offend anyone from outer space who may read this...was going to say Mars, but too close to home.)
