About Cynthia S. Lin, MD

As we learned in school, we all have the potential to learn, to grow and to be educated. I am here to show you your potential to lead a healthy life. For everyone to have a healthy life, I encourage them to take an active role to take care of themselves. We all need to have a healthy attitude and lifestyle. That is why I view taking care of patients as a two-way street. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking gourmet but "healthy" meals. I like a variety of sports from running and skiing to biking.

Dr. Lin is the best PCP I have ever had. She genuinely cares about me as both a patient and as a person. She is thorough in her explanations of my care, and she always listens to my concerns and questions with a caring demeanor. Dr. Lin is truly an incredible physician and SRS is lucky to have her!

Dr Lin was very personable, gave me information on my last year's labs that my previous doctor did no cover.
