What Our Patients Say
It's a tiny procedure for someone like Dr. Linder, who specializes in far more complex ones, but I was still nervous. Dr. Linder calmed me down immediately. You know you're in good hands when he's your surgeon.
It's been two weeks since the procedure, the area is healing beautifully, and I'll be forever grateful that he was able to take care of me so quickly. It's one of those tiny things that really affects your quality of life.
I am a 65-year-old male who was lucky enough to inherit bilateral hooded eyelids, which became more pronounced as I aged. I was referred to Dr. Linder by my PCP, and from beginning to end, I received exceptional and professional care from Dr. Linder and his staff.
During my initial visit, Dr. Linder used a Q-tip to demonstrate how my eyes would look following an upper bilateral blepharoplasty, which I found very helpful. The surgery itself was quick, and I would rate the pain and discomfort as a 1.5 out of 10.
Dr. Linder even called me personally to check in post-op, which is uncommon in today’s environment. Once again, I am thoroughly satisfied with the results—and my wife is happy she can see my entire eyes again.
I highly recommend Dr. Linder to family, friends, and anyone reading this review.
I am so happy with the results. The procedure was done in the office with no pain in the following days. Minor swelling
was minimal. The entire staff is very professional and Dr. Linder lived up to his outstanding reputation. He IS the best !
Truly above and beyond to the point he even called to check up ON A WEEKEND outside of office hours to see how I was doing post-op and clear up any questions or concerns I had.
I'd give another 5 star review if I could.
Dr. Linder is a very skilled surgeon. The results of my procedures are so natural looking, and at just 6 weeks out, my incisions are barely visible.
Dr. Linder and his staff are all professional, thorough, and compassionate. He even personally called after my surgery to check on my recovery.
Thank you Dr. Linder for improving my vision and for my new naturally lifted, bright-eyed appearance.
Dr Linder was my doctor, He was great, even followed up with me the next day., the entire staff was excellent
. I give Dr Linder 5 stars.
His staff from front to back were very attentive and great’!
One of the biggest praises I have for my personal experience is, Dr. Linder himself, not a staff member, called me to see how I was doing after the surgery. Wow, you dont get that kind of personal touch anymore, but you do with Dr. Linder.
Having never done anything like this before, I was a bit nervous, but Dr. Linder treated me with respect and kindness. He also took the time to talk with me, look over my chart, and make notes etc with me right before my surgery!
I never had to wait long, his office is very efficiently ran. I thank you Dr. Linder and your staff, for not only doing a wonderful job but for being beautiful sweet people.
Lastly, Dr. Linder also explained each process and answered each of my questions. The time he took made me feel as if I was the only patient he had. I was relaxed and confident in him after my first consultation. I highly recommend him!
