Dr. Lin always listens to my concerns and always explains my health issues. He is very nice and is always very attentive.
March 31, 2026
Excellent doctor.
March 19, 2026
That's about it. He did a great job and look forward to maybe seeing him again in the future.
March 17, 2026
Yes, Dr. Lin is a very professional doctor and he answers all my questions and spends time with me. Thank you.

The nurse called me 30 minutes after the appointment time. She walked at least 6 steps ahead of me and motioned the room I would be in. She hurried my blood pressure and temp and pulse wrote it down and as she was leaving she said doctor will be right in and left without making contact
March 13, 2026
Had no problems. Was a very friendly and understanding communications.
March 04, 2026
This doctor is lovely, his staff is lovely, but I get upset when you ask me questions about how likely I am to recommend this doctor when it's for blood cancers and things like that. Like, who wants to wish that on their friends? That's my only comment. Thanks.
March 04, 2026
Everyone was very kind, it makes you feel very comfortable, thank you.
March 02, 2026

I feel confident with Dr. Lin's knowledge and I've been seeing him for a few years and I think he's a great doctor. That's all I need to say about him and I trust his opinion. Thank you.
January 26, 2026
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Dr Lin for his patience, attention to detail, and the time given to educate me on the situation. I am also deeply appreciative of the thoughtful follow-up to my care being provided. Dr Lin's professionalism and approach have been truly reassuring during this process. Thank you for the exceptional care and support.

My visit with Dr. Lin was exceptional. He gave me a lot of time and he really did a great job of explaining everything thoroughly to me. However, it took an extraordinary amount of time to get an appointment and I was only able to get this appointment because of help from another doctor and I called PIH hematology multiple, multiple times and I was not even scheduled until the end of January when they did finally call me back and I started calling at the middle of November, like November 15th. I think it's the first time I called. So that was really very frustrating and every time I call, it's like a wait forever. Today when I called, it was like 16 people in front of me and I was on the phone for like 45 minutes waiting for somebody to speak to me.
January 05, 2026
We hope that every patient is treated well and has always great respect for any need especially compassion
December 30, 2025
Thank you Dr Lin for seeing dad even though our visit was to be virtual.
December 29, 2025
At the start of the survey, I didn't quite hear everything and I pressed one a couple of times, which were no's, which that was not accurate. I think most people are used to one being a yes or whatever, and then usually it goes down the other way. So that was a little confusing at the start. Otherwise, I would say that yes, I was very pleased with Dr. Lin and the office. And I've only had one appointment, but so far, so good. Thank you very much. Bye.
December 23, 2025
He showed utmost respect. He went into lecture like details discussing my symptoms and showing the stepes needed to narrow down the cause. All in all it was a pleasant interaction with Dr Edwin Lin
December 19, 2025
He ask for my next appointment if I'd want a zoom or to come in. I'm happy he gave me a choice.

appointment at 10:20 a.m. We came early incase we had to fill any more paperwork I know he good at job, but waiting for more than 30 minutes is excessive. After waiting for a lengthy time, I approached the desk to see if and when we would be seen. She checked as to when we would seen. He was only at his 9:45 patient. we were called at 10:50.

Patent caring kind
September 30, 2025
I was denied use of this provider by my old insurance company and sent across town to another group. I went to the new group of physicians and never felt comfortable. When open enrollment came again I changed my provider and came back. Dr. Lin was able to see me again, I feel so safe again. Thank you doctor Lin and your entire staff.
September 29, 2025
Nurse was great too
September 29, 2025
I have never seen an overflow of patients waiting to be seen. Chairs in waiting room all filled. I arrived 15 minutes early, had already signed in online, and had a longer wait than I have ever had before! This has nothing to do with my visit but I want to add that I had to call into PIH this morning, I was on hold for 1hr.40th mins! Something really needs to be done about leaving calls on hold this long!
September 24, 2025
Wonderful staff and excellent Doctor
September 17, 2025
Dr Lin is awesome. I would and will refer him.
September 12, 2025
I just wanted to say that he's very, very nice. And he's the only office that gives validation tickets for the parking. I'm 90 years old, don't have a lot of money, so that's really, really good that you give validation. Thank you. Bye-bye.
September 11, 2025
The staff were all so kind . I went on a particularly busy day so my apt did take longer than usual but everyone's kindness and attentiveness made up for it. Doctor Lin was so amazing . He has great bedside manner and explained things well.
September 05, 2025
Good guy Straight talk Felt confidant with the doctor
August 27, 2025
Doctor Lin is Awesome!! Explains everything. I can only wish her was my general doctor. I trust him completely. I no longer trust too many doctors at PIH. But with doctor Lin and another doctor at family practice I trust. ????great doctor (name removed)

Everything is fine.
August 11, 2025
Good afternoon. I was very disappointed with the reception department. Why? Because I arrived 15 minutes to 11:00, my visit was at 11:00, and they saw me at 11:30. Many, many American citizens, white people, and Mexican-Americans came by, so I stood up and asked the lady if they were taking appointments based on color, race, height, or size. I was angry because I felt discriminated against.
August 08, 2025
This office and providers have been consistently excellent in dealing with me. The are very patient and friendly.
August 07, 2025

Dr. Lin is professional, knowledgeable, caring and a fantastic listener
June 24, 2025
I don't know about you, but I know about Dr. Lin. He's an excellent doctor. What I like about him the most is how he explains my medical conditions to me and shows me what all the numbers mean, really explain it in depth. I really like that a lot. Then I know what I need to improve or change my eating habits or exercise more or whatever I need. He really goes into detail in what's going on with my charts.
June 23, 2025
Dr. Lin and his staff are always very professional and polite. Office is always very clean
June 11, 2025
Great ? thanks
May 29, 2025
I really liked the doctor. He was so nice. He explained everything to me and spent enough time.
May 21, 2025
Yeah, the only disappointment I have, and it is a very, very tremendous one, is that the alternative methods, alternative therapies are not offered in the oncology department at all of PIH. None. None at all. That's not good. Because people need choices as to what they're going to do as far as alternative and whole holistic and or natural and other things to do for their problems when they come in there. That's not being offered there. That is the only qualm I have about that department. Otherwise, they do tests and so on and so on. That's why I go there only for tests. I'm not going to get treated there because of what I'm telling you. And that's an important issue that needs to be tackled by PIH. I hope that they take up the challenge. Thank you for listening.
May 20, 2025
Office instructed doctor to see the patient after me, instead of me, therefore my wait time for the doctor to come in to the exam room was about an hour. Doctor apologized for long wait and said I was seen out of order by mistake.
May 15, 2025
I did recommend Dr Lin to my friend

Dr Lin provides reassurance that I am okay regarding my past experience with breast cancer. He thoroughly explained the results of the recent breast biopsy indicating no new malignancy.
