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.

Horrible experience
He rushed through the visit without explaining or talking about what he was going to do. My son had an ingrown toenail and was very scared of the procedure. The doctor did not explain things and was dismissive of my son’s pain. When my son told him he was in pain, he literally told him “no, I know you can’t feel it.” After the visit, not only is my son traumatized, but his ingrown toenail problem is worse. I would not trust him to work with children. Very bad experience!

Should have believed the negative reviews
Dr. Lynde was dismissive and did not explain what or why he did any of the 3 things he did to confirm/disagree with an emergency room Dr. (who was wonderful and explained everything to me). Before I could ask any questions, he left the room. I had to check the portal to find out what he diagnosed me with. I have no idea why he disagreed with the emergency room doc because he moved on to his next patient after 15 minutes with me.

Not good, he is more concerned about his money then my foot problems. Before looking at my foot he said that corns are not covered by insurance and it will be 100.00 to remove it. I said that it hurts and what choice do I have, he could care less. It took him 30 seconds to remove it with a knife and nothing else. Seems like all he cares about is making his money and overcharging senior citizens who have no other choice at that point. Never again!

I went to Dr. Lynde for a broken bone in my foot. Could not have been happier with his care. Each visit he was very caring and explained everything to me. Would highly recommend him. Also his entire staff is FANTASTIC.

Nice Doctor, experienced but feel he should be more communicative of expectations and care maintenance changes each visit.

Likelihood: NEVER to anyone! Dr was a total retart n didn't have the time, just $ hungry! Ended up having to get my toe nail removed again by a more certified dr who spent 30 min with me just going over what we can do to fix the issue rather than just give formula 3 for $40 and talk about a laser for $200 per toe nail. This new dr actually took time with me and reassed the issue n gave positive feedback n how to not use peroxide everyday cause dries out, how to properly care for the wound
