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.

Dr Lynders went above and beyond for my father on a recent emergy room visit. My 81 year old father is newly relocated to this area and needed multiple prescriptions refilled. Without a new Primary Care Physician on file no area pharmacies could help us and we were referred to Urgent Care - Urgent Care then referred us to the emergency room. Dr Lynders was thorough, kind, considerate and called the prior pharmacy on file out in Idaho to make sure we had everything refilled until which time we can secure a new PCP. He even put up with my father's Dad jokes! I am so thankful that we have this facility in Westbrook available to us!

Please do not go to this doctor. He ended up being my ER doc as I came in for extreme pain (I also have an autoimmune disease). He utterly dismissed me, gave me nothing for pain (while in the ER), told me my symptoms were not an emergency, also told me he wouldn't give me a RX for opiates (UMMMMM I didn't even ask). Told me I had an ulcer and wouldn't run any further tests (not even an ultrasound). Bedside manner is completely non-existent. So for background I am in good health (except for what I went into ER for, and my Autoimmune Disease. I female under 50 yrs old. Long story short, I followed up with my primary care and because he did his job, we found out I needed emergency gallbladder surgery. So if you want to actually get a diagnosis or a doctor who at least tries and doesn't treat you like you don't matter, then this isn't the doctor for you. My PCP told me my gallbladder was in bad shape, but tell me again it's a ulcer. Unbelievable.
