Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very Caring Doc
He was gonna perform my second colonoscopy but was concerned cause my BP was high. I understood he didn't wanna take a risk with my life. I'll wait for a another opportunity.

Broken Trust
Shocked how uninformed he was with all things COVID. After doing my due diligence I decided not to get the COVID vaccine but Dr. Lynch would not write a letter to my employer simply explaining I was being treated by him for Crohn's Disease. This was before any vaccines were even approved by the FDA mind you. I was shocked and disappointed to say the least. Haven't heard from his office since my request was denied, and I don't plan on returning.

I was looking for a place to have my colonoscopy done, so I called this doctors office. I wanted to to know what locations he performs the procedure so that I could check with my daughter to see which location would be convenient for her to give me a ride. The lady said she could tell me that until I make an appt and hung up.

I want to praise Dr. P. Lynch for the wonderful care he has, and still shows my daughter. She was going through a very serious illness and he wouldn't stop until he got her the care/referrals that was needed to detect and treatment her. It's also comforting when you can look at him and feel trust, humbleness, confidence and real humanity. Today my daughter is on the road to recovery with a treatment plan in place. Dr. Lynch and his staff keep up the excellent care it's hard to find these days

I just had my first appointment with Dr. Lynch, and could not be happier. He listens, and shows concern, does not rush through the appointment. He told me everything I wanted to hear. He agrees that it would be best for me not to be on medication my whole life. The staff is also great to work with!

An excellent clinician with a great bedside manner. I had been looking for a GI doc willing to perform an unsedated endoscopy, and although Dr. Lynch was initially hesitant, he listened to my concerns and agreed to the procedure. His excellent skills and experience, along with a willingness to pace things according to my tolerance made for a successful and minimally-uncomfortable procedure. I would recommend Dr. Lynch without reservation.

Dr Lynch is an incredible physician and person! The expertise and care he has put into the treatment of my husband, the dedication and the follow up is extremely rare. I am saying that while encountering many physicians in a personal and also professional level as I have worked in a healthcare. I am well familiar with all the challenges and the system. I would not only strongly recommend Dr Lynch, but I will be forever grateful for all that he has done and doing. Wish more doctors are like him
