Fat Tuesday feted – Methodist Hospital style
One of Methodist Hospital’s highest profile and most successful events which falls on Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras each year attracts hundreds of attendees and dozens of exclusive restaurants. This year’s “beads and boas” event was one of the most successful ever according to organizers..
The 80z All Stars, a California 1980s tribute band, provided some great cover songs. Other activities included the always funny Mardi Gras parade, a silent auction, dancing and mouth-watering food prepared by more than 30 of the area’s most successful restaurants
Former Methodist Hospital Chief of Staff James Y. Lin, MD, was honored at the 19th Annual Mardi Gras on Tuesday.
Born in Taiwan, Dr. Lin came to the U.S. in 1975, graduating from the St. Louis University School of Medicine in 1985. He completed his residency at Huntington Memorial Hospital in 1989, started his medical practice in 1992 and opened his private practice in Arcadia in 2000. He and his wife, Rachel, have two sons, Eric and Nicholas.
