"Need to begin with I am a 1st timer on the Colonoscopy. I can say that working with Dr.Lin and his team was fantastic. Extremely professional and high efficient. Every question I had was answered to complete satisfaction."
"I wanted to share my experience to all the people who suffer from extreme fear, anxiety, nervous crisis and even panic attacks. My name’s Florencia, I come from Argentina. I’ve been dealing for years with stomach issues which increased over the last time. Several GI’s made me believe it was “emotional”, “she’s too sensitive”, “it’s all in her head”.. but the pain and the daily issues weren’t going away. Then I had the fortune to meet Dr Derek Lin. Since the beginning, he was different from every doctor I’ve ever met. He listened, he put on my shoes, he did proper research and he was the first one who could saw in me more than just a human overwhelmed with emotions. Eventually, he recommended and endoscopy and a colonoscopy together (which it was my BIGGEST fear ever). Today, I had both procedures dones and I hope my experience can help others that are going through the same.. It doesn’t hurt, nothing is going to happen, you’re are going to be fine and safe. Don’t read anything on the internet, don’t consult with friends or others their experiences.. just trust your doctor. In behalf on me and my husband, we want to express how grateful we are with Dr. Lin, he’s not only a wonderful professional but also a wonderful human being. Truly a doctor with ethics, knowledge and a huge heart. We would also like to thank Joe (anesthetist), Pam (nurse), Melody and all the wonderful staff who calmed me down, contained me and did a amazing job too. Florencia Velasco"
"First time appt. The staff is very friendly, personable but more important.. EXTREMELY professional. Wait time for check-in, Dr. visit and scheduling was very efficient!!"
"Communicates very well, listens and asks questions others overlook. Seems to truly enjoy what he does, follows up without another paid visit, and is truly refreshing in these times of assembly line medicine. Nurses and staff are great and banter well with my dry sense of humor. Office is spotless clean. A+ so far."
"A very satisfying medical examination experience. The hospital environment is very good, and the medical staff are very professional and efficient. Dr. Lin is very kind and professional."
"I recently had an colonoscopy procedure done at Texas Endoscopy Plano by Dr. Lin. I highly recommend this surgeon. He was thorough in explaining all information before and after the procedure. Results were received quickly. The nurses were friendly and reassuring. The only glitch I saw was during the check-in procedure. Some people did not know how to use the kiosk easily or correctly to make copies of their DL or medical card."
"Good location and friendly staff. They make sure you’re comfortable and know what they’re doing and who is taking care of you. Dr. Lin is thorough and makes sure you understand the results of the tests."
"Dr. Lin was very thorough, carefully listened to my concerns, and ordered a couple of tests. Wait time to see the doctor in this office is always excellent. Highly recommend."
"Dr Lin was very polite, informative, and explained the procedure very well. Office staff and nurses were very polite. I was in and out in 35 minutes. Very efficient."
"I met Dr. Lin for the first time since the move to Dallas. He took much of his time listening to my issues carefully. His approach to procedures is much conservative which I appreciate. I certainly will continue to see him for sure. Thank you Dr. Lin!"
"Good doctor. Listens to your problems. Doesn’t quickly dismiss them due to age and instead takes a solid look. He is very thorough, asks a lot of questions. He does a good job of explaining things so you can understand what’s going on. He doesn’t leave you with too many questions and he even took the extra step to predict what questions I would have and had options ready. He has a very good staff as well, nurse practitioners like Sunny ( may be spelled Sunni, I couldn’t find her name). I was really impressed with her too because she was so darn sharp. Formal and friendly. Asked a bunch of great questions, recorded everything I was telling her, found all my test results. She was also super prompt and thorough. This office is a really good office man, I’d been to 4-5 other officers prior and the treatment was nowhere near as good. Not even close. I drove an hour and a half to see this Doctor Lin and it was worth it. Busy office, I see why because the healthcare is great quality. 👍🏾 Thank you"
"This was my first visit with Dr. Lin and I was greeted very pleasantly and the office staff was very nice and also those that helped in the room. Dr. Lin was very amenable and kind and explained everything to me. He explained what he wanted to do and we will see how the testing goes. Thank you!"
"Initial greeting was very positive and I was ushered into the examining room almost immediately. Both Dr. Lin's assistant as well as the doctor himself were affable yet professional. I felt I was in good hands from start to finish."
"Dr. Lin is excellent. He is articulate, congenial, and a great doctor! I always get nervous before a colonoscopy, but Dr. Lin and his staff made me feel comfortable and relaxed. Will definitely recommend him to all of my friends."
"Dr. Derek Lin and his team provided me with a wonderful experience. I was really nervous but they made me feel very comfortable. No issues, no complaints gripes."
