Going into my Mohs surgery, I have to admit—I was a little nervous. But from the moment Dr. Lynott walked in, his calm and kind demeanor immediately put me at ease. It was clear within minutes that he genuinely cares about his patients, not just as cases, but as people.
Dr. Lynott's expertise, paired with his reassuring approach, made the entire experience much smoother than I had anticipated. His team was like a well-oiled machine, working seamlessly throughout the 2.5-hour procedure. Their professionalism, skill, and compassion were evident in every step.
If you're looking for a dermatologist or Mohs surgeon who combines top-notch medical expertise with a personal touch, I highly recommend Dr. Lynott and his team. Thank you, Dr. Lynott, for your exceptional care!

Dr. Lynott and the support staff were great! The only change I would make is having a different exit for patients who have surgery. The lobby was very full on our way out and there was no privacy.
