Reviews
Dr Derek Lin is a great doctor, great listener, very knowledgeable, staff was friendly
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.
Attentive. Planned approach to resolve health concerns.
Staff was courteous professional and helpful I got great results.
A fantastic overall experience
非常满意的一次体检经历。医院环境很好，医护人员都很专业高效。林医生对人很和蔼，专业水平也很高。
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.

All went well. Took me on time, listened carefully, and left feeling confident that Dr Lin would definitely help.
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!
Dr Lin is the doctor I’ve been looking for. Everything about him fits perfectly with me
Great experience from the check in the nurses and the procedure with Dr. Lin. I highly recommend Dr. Lin and his team.
Very welcoming and caring. DR WAS VERY EXPLICIT BEFORE AND AFTER THE PROCEDURE.
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!
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.
