First assigned as Assistant Chief of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R), he was later promoted to chief of the department, directing both the outpatient PM&R clinic and electrodiagnostics lab. After finishing his military commitment, Dr. Lin spent two years in private practice in Arlington, Virginia before joining Capitol Spine & Pain Centers in 2006.

Dr. Lin's areas of interest include musculoskeletal, sports, and workplace injuries, acute and chronic back, neck, and joint pain, peripheral nervous system disorders, and carpal tunnel syndrome. He is an expert in nerve conduction/electromyography (EMG) studies, which are useful in diagnosing a range of neurologic conditions. He integrates non-surgical treatments, such as medications, therapeutic exercise prescription, and soft tissue injections, into customized treatment plans that help patients relieve pain and maximize function.
