Provided by Doctor.comI was under Dr. Lynch's care for several years. Given my profession, (military engineer) and active lifestyle (triathlete/distance runner/MTB rider), his medical care, expertise in orthopedics, and innovative treatments have allowed me to be the best I can be at my physically demanding job and continue to pursue my high activity level despite injuries. His bedside manner is top notch! He is a great listener and truly cares for his patients. He becomes your partner in recovery and I truly felt I got the best care I could wish for every time there was an injury for him to treat.

Provided by Doctor.comDr Lynch was my primary care provider for almost a decade, with a brief break. I always felt he had my best interest in mind and worked tirelessly to get me referred to a neurological expert at Duke University. This was critical to my long term continuity of care because the Army neurologists were on 2 year rotation and were not experts with my condition. My interactions and care with Dr Lynch was always very professional, he always remembered me and my specific medical issues and would go out if his way way to help me.

Provided by Doctor.comDr. Lynch has provided me with excellent care. He is extremely thorough and always open to my concerns. In my opinion, the best traits Dr. Lynch has is that he genuinely cares and continually followed up beyond what was required. He ensured I recovered from 3 of my last major surgeries. If it wasn't for Dr. Lynch I would've medically retired years ago.
