I have seen Dr. Lien a few times, He always remembers me and does not have to scurry around to find and read my file while I'm there. He is kind and supportive but also honest and knowledgeabler.

I highly recommend him as a hand surgeon. He explains exactly what has to be done and his recovery recommendations are spot on! I recovered a week ahead of projections. And his recommendation for an occupational therapy were excellent! She did an amazing job on my hand. They weren’t sure I’d ever play the piano again but I’ve been able to play numerous pieces I’ve played before!

Dr. Lien explained all the information I needed in a professional but easy for me to understand way. Dr. Lien answered all of my questions in a kindly manner. When I left the office. I didn't have to go home and look up words I didn't understand on the internet. Because I was too afraid to ask. I had a hand surgeon before, when I left office. I felt like I just walked out of a meeting in a doctor's lecture hall.
