Dr. Kant Yuankai Lin, MD

Dr. Kant Lin never discussed his refferal with me or anything about facial recognition surgery. Kant Lin signed off on a Medical Procedure that I didn't even discuss with him as a Patient. I never spoke to him in person or never met him at Froedtert hospital according to Medical notes. That's Medical malpractice

Dr. Kant Lin signed off on a plan that I didn't discuss with him or did he have my approval. Very unprofessional and not what a Doctor is supposed to do. I dont Recommend Kant Lin at all. Very Disappointed to say The Least

2019 I've read previous reviews and there seems to be a pattern because I didnt believe a top surgeon would have such bad outcomes. I also wondered if he did the surgery or someone else. He offered to perform another surgery for correction, but I feared it would be worse.

Bad reconstruction results . Went on for over a year. I did not do my research in a state of cancer diagnosis so I never read any reviews beforehand. Bilateral mastectomy and reconstruction immediately. Tried to have it repaired but the next Dr. has tried twice to fix and it cannot be done. The breast without cancer looks even worse and more botched than the diseased one. Look at websites and images too. I have looked at them and still haven't seen any that even look like my botched results. You will save yourself so much misery if you do your homework. Niceness in the office is not enough.

I had a bilateral mastectomy with cancer in one breast. My reconstruction results are unbearable to look at every day . The breast without cancer looks worse that the diseased one. Botched beyond repair. Very nice Dr. but the results are so bad that I am so unhappy. Tried to have this fixed but next surgeon cannot even repair it. I have looked at actual patients and websites for years and cannot find anything that looks like my results. Please even though a cancer diagnosis is shocking do your research and read every review to find a good surgeon or weed out the others. I wish I had.

My results from breast reconstruction was very unsatisfactory. I had to get revision surgery less than a year later. My right implant moved under my armpit, which was painful and prevented me from sleeping on my side. The original surgery also left me with some very ugly “dog ears” which were successfully removed in the revision. Wish I had done my homework about the different types of plastic surgeons. I would have chosen an aesthetic one initially!!

Bilateral Mastectomy and he did reconstruction or his students did in 2009. I have yet to find a bra to fit. They lay like doughnuts and go under my arms. I have 1/4" scars across my chest and under my arms. My right side has an extra skin pull that is so noticeable and looks like an extra nipple only off to the side. That one also always feele like it is being pulled I to my chest. I developed a staff infection in his office and almost lost the implants. The person that removed my stitches did not wash her hands or wear gloves. I wish I had never ever been sent to this person. I can wear a bra it hurts so bad. I don't have insurance so I can't go have someone fix it and back when I had it done and mentiomed these things he just boasted on what a good jobhe did. When I was in the hospital for the staff infection my roommate said she heard th student Dr say he gave me the staff infection to one of the nurses. I regret my decision now and wish II'd just taken off my breasts… with no reconstruction. He has made me so depressed. I have to buy dresses loose or with jackets even my mother of the grooms dress because I couldn't find a bra to fit and the scars and extra tag show thru light wt fabrics. I should never have gone to UVA neither Dr made ke feel good and I had 7 lumpectomys that were unnecessary before having both removed a few weeks later.

Dr. Lin was my plastic surgeon for breast reconstruction following a mastectomy. I believe that people are more likely to write a review if they did not have a good experience, because I had HEARD so many wonderful things about Dr. Lin's work that I was surprised to even see a couple of bad reviews on here. (My opinion: a couple of unhappy people out of all of the surgeries that he has done, is not bad. He is a very sought after surgeon) I even did all that I could to get my insurance to approve for me to go to him, although out of network. Just as I had heard, he WAS remarkable. I wouldn't expect you to feel that you are best friends with him right off the bat; he is a straight shooter as far as the facts, what he suggests, what your options are, and all possibilities, but I like that kind of thing. During the same operation as my mastectomy, Dr. Lin inserted my expanders. Over a period of time I went to him for my fill-ups and he listened to me and wanted me to achieve my desired… look as far as size, placement, and even cleavageâ?¦ although I know that every women's body is different and results can be different depending on weather you yourself decide to do skin and nipple sparing or not, if you have undergone radiation, etc. I then had my exchange surgery two weeks ago (expanders out, implants in) and I could no be happier! Deep down I had prepared myself for the worst, because I really liked my breasts before, but my boobs now look even better than they did when I was 20! I am a young mother (32 years old) and so it is nice to have a new pair of boobs to enjoy, although going into this, reducing my high risk of cancer (I am BRCA 1 positive) and being here for my children was the most important thing - I still wanted some good aesthetic results, but my results are way better than good - they are perfect! I should also mention that with every visit that I had with Dr. Lin, I liked him more and more and more. He knows what he is doing and he is the best at what he does, but he also has a big heart and wants what is best for his patients and for them to be happy with the results. I guarantee he will grow on you; I am going to miss seeing him and for going through such a big event in my life, I wouldn't have wanted to go through it with any other doctor. He is amazing! His Resident, Alex, is also top notch and will make an excellent doctor soon! Post note: I also loved the rest of the staff and I don't think that I ever once waited longer than 10 minutes. Bonus: Really good sushi in the cafeteria on your way out. :)

Breasts sag, go under arms after reconstrucion. 1/8-!/4 in scars on both. Lumps in scars. This is after paying for repair surgery. Wish I had only had bilaterail mastectomyy w no reconstruction. Painful no bra fits. Would never refer anyone
