“Dr. Lynch Listens and Cares”
Dr. Lynch and his team were a welcome relief after a motor vehicle accident in 2022. The Stellate Ganglion Block offered HOPE!
I received the SGB for PTSD, Post-Concussion Syndrome, Anxiety, and POTS. Dr. Lynch took the time to really listen, asked questions, and diagnosed my POTS when my providers didn't have answers for my symptoms.
The SGB has been transformative for my quality of life! I’m very grateful for Dr. Lynch’s compassion, expertise, and care.

“More than 25 years of suffering is over!”
I’ve been dealing with PTSD since the late ‘90s. I’ve done everything that there is to do to manage the symptoms. Doc Lynch & the SGB gave me my life back. I feel peace that I haven’t felt in more than 25 years! He gave my wife her husband back and my ten kids no longer have a Dad who struggles with managing his PTSD.

“A Beacon of Hope and Light”
My time spent with Dr. Lynch and his team filled my heart in ways I cannot fully explain. From the moment I walked in the door, I felt deeply seen and loved. Taking the step to get the SGB was one of the bravest things I have done in my healing journey, and I invite anyone to take that step too. I am grateful of my therapist, Lauren Bittner, for her support and connecting me to this opportunity. Thank you, Dr. Lynch, for the being a light in my darkness and for your unconditional care!

“SGB”
Dr. Lynch is the most knowledgeable, professional, kind, and patient physician. He listens and he cares about his patients. He is what every physician should be. I saw him in the past for Prolotherapy, and more recently for the SGB treatments. SGB made a significant difference for the constant anxiety I had.

“Gratitude”
I lived with PTSD for years. My whole life was built around avoiding triggers and keeping my nervous system calm. Therapy, medication, and a service dog helped. SGB with Dr. Lynch changed that. Relief was immediate and has held. My brain still warns me, but now I choose what I do with it. I’m grateful to have my freedom back.

“Thankful for SGB”
I don't normally write reviews, but one does not see Dr. Lynch without feeling compelled to let everyone know how incredible his practice is.
I have suffered from anxiety my whole life, but after experiencing severe trauma late last year, PTSD completely hijacked my body. It dug its claws into my brain and forced me to re-live my worst nightmare over and over again. Every day felt like an unbearable uphill struggle, and I was desperate for relief from the constant agony.

“Dr. Lynch is Exceptional!”
If you are struggling, I would definitely recommend looking into SGB with Dr. Lynch. I saw Dr. Lynch for SGB for Long Covid issues. He, his wife Jodi, and the staff, are all phenomenal! They were very patient and understanding with my many, many questions/concerns. His staff even held my hand during my right side injections. Post SGB I noticed instant improvement in my chest pains and deep breathing issues. I’m so glad I was told about Dr. Lynch and SGB. I highly recommend his office!

“Life Changing treatment”
Dr. Lynch and his staff are absolutely the most professional group of medical providers I have ever experienced. He took his time to explain the procedure in detail and answered all questions. The procedure itself was quick and easy. The results have been life changing and I am sharing this with all I know. As a retired Army NCO I want to say thank you to Dr. Lynch for all you have done for others and myself.

“Amazing doctor”
I've never felt like a doctor would truly listen in the past until I went to Dr. Lynch. He was easy to talk to, listened to my concerns about the SGB shot, and made everything easy and relaxing as someone could. The shot itself was 1/10 for pain and fast. The results were almost immediate and truly life changing for me. If I could rate him and his staff higher I would. 100% best doctor I've ever had!
