5.0 star star star star starHe is a very friendly and understanding doctor. He listened to my concerns and needs and always offered advice and help where he could. He is very personable and easy to talk to and helped me to understand the process from start to end with my entire birth experience. During my birth I was ready to give up on a vaginal birth and just have a cesarian section, but Dr. Lin encouraged me and helped me get through the experience.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Lin has been an amazing gyobn doctor through out my entire pregnancy. I had previously been to another doctor through a different hospital during an ectopic pregnancy I had and felt like I was looked over during the whole experience. After that I wanted to find a gynecologist that would help me and my husband guide us through trying again. Dr. Lin took great care answering our many questions after the ectopic and was very thorough. After getting pregnant again and throughout the whole pregnancy, I always felt extremely taken care of with Dr Lin and all the wonderful nurses and staff at the Mokena office. Even as far as the fast call service if I had a question for the nurses or scheduling. When it came time to deliver, it was again a wonderful experience during delivery with the staff and nurses at the Palos Hospital and Dr. Lin by our side. He was also very dedicated to give me the support I needed with my post partum depression afterwards as well. I am so truly happy for the overall experience. I will definitely feel confident being supported in the future with my needs. I will always recommend him to friends and family when the situation comes. Thank you so very much for being there through the most important time in mine and my family’s life.

5.0 star star star star starI’ve seen several different doctors for the concerns Dr Lin addressed and the majority previously brushed them off or downplayed them. He has been the first doctor in decades to take these particular concerns seriously and help take action on them in a way that has already greatly improved my quality of life.

5.0 star star star star starI highly recommend Dr Alexander Lin. Dr Alexander Lin is very attentive, patient and willing to address your concerns and worries. Dr Lin shows that he cares for his patients. He gives me a call after test results are out to 1) tell you the results 2) explain the test results 3) and answer any questions you might have. I am very appreciative of extra efforts he makes because not every doctors do that.
