Dr. Dean Dong Lin, MD

I originally thought the doc and his staff cared about their patients. However as time moves on it’s clear that is nit the case. After surgery less than one year they have completely abandoned me as a patient. It also became known to me thru a mri that the doc did not clear all the spurs and narrowing during surgery. So some pain has continued. I would search a lil more to find another doctor.

I had developed severe stenosis and a "slipped disc" in my back making it very difficult to walk. Dr. Lin reviewed my case and said he could help me with surgery. It went very well and I feel better now than I have for years and can now walk with no pain. Dr. Lin is a skilled caring surgeon who I would recommend with no hesitation.

Dr. Lin is outstanding in his chosen field. His enthusiasm for his profession is evident. His office staff are welcoming and efficient. I whole heartedly recommend him.

The title says everything. A screw he was placing to secure the rod went too far and penetrated a nerve. The surgery was repeated the next day to relocate the screw with no relief. Two years of burning nerve pain and a drop foot with no hope of change.

All I can say is thank, thank you, thank you! I had my fusion done by Dr. Lin and I feel great!

I needed disc fusion surgery and Dr. Lin operated on me in 2016. He is a straight shooter and everything went the way he said it would. It does take time to heal and go through therapy but it’s worth it. The sciatic pain I had in my leg is gone and I can now walk for several miles. No more pain meds!

Dr Lin is wonderful. I had a L-4 L-5 fusion on my back in 2015. Went back to him this year and had C4-C-7 fused. He knows what he is doing. I was up walking around day after surgeries and went home.

Dr. Lin and staff were excellent. Surgery was great and I believe I will have my life back.

I had heard a great deal of talk about neck pain after disc removal in the c spine (neck), but I had 2 discs removed and there is little if any pain 1 year after surgery from dr Lin. He has my vote.

Dr. Lin is a fine practitioner and diagnostician.
