You will not find a better doctor!

Dr. Lynch is by far the best doctor we have ever been to! His expertise in his field is phenomenal! My Dad had a shoulder surgery that ended up in him not being able to raise his arm past his chest. We went to see Dr. Lynch and he preformed a surgery to repair it, we could not be happier with the results. My Dad is once again able to use his arm/shoulder! Dr. Lynch's care and concern for my Dad was something that you just don't see in doctors now days. From the personal phone call the night before surgery to all the follow-up, he was exceptional, as was his PA Mike, and nurse April! I can also say the same for Dr. Goodwin, as he did my husbands shoulder surgery! Thank you to the whole team at The Shoulder Clinic of Idaho!

Dr. Joseph Lynch

I fell in January while helping a widow friend of ours with a tire problem and upon completion of that I started to shovel her driveway because it had snowed the night prior. I didn't realize there was a patch of ice under the snow where the water ran down the chain from the gutters and had puddled and frozen on the driveway. I slipped on the ice and landed on my shoulder. An x-ray indicated a very bad tear to my rotator cuff. We contacted the Shoulder Clinic of Idaho for an appointment and saw Dr. Lynch's PA, Michael. Surgery was scheduled with Dr. Lynch, and while we really didn't know anyone who he had operated on, we felt he would do a good job. I had to wait for 5 months for surgery and due to the constant pain I got very impatient waiting for the time to arrive. It finally did, and the evening prior to the surgery I received a personal phone call from Dr. Lynch telling me he was thinking about me, asking me if I had any questions, and assuring me he would take good care of me during the surgery and would see me bright and early the next morning. I live in constant pain 24 hours a day and have had 9 back surgeries and many other surgeries, however I have never had a surgeon call me the night prior to surgery like Dr. Lynch did. My wife and I were both blown away.

We arrived at St Luke's Meridian at 5:30 am, were checked in very soon afterward and taken off to be prepped for surgery. The anesthesiologist came in and spoke to us about the anesthesia, I was whisked off to surgery and came through it with flying colors. Dr. Lynch went to find my wife in a conference room where the hospital personnel had taken her, and report to her how the surgery went. This doctor and his staff are awesome. My wife spoke with April on the phone several times and she was most pleasant. The RN's at St. Luke's who cared for me were so attentive and took excellent care of me while I was in the hospital.

The food at the hospital prepared by the personnel in the Food Service Dept. was timely, very hot, and most delicious. Overall, my shoulder replacement surgery was a great success. I am two weeks post-op now and doing very well and have had very minimal pain with this surgery. Dr. Joseph Lynch has proved to be an excellent surgeon and I would highly recommend him to anyone who has shoulder problems. Thank you Dr. Lynch, April and Michael. We appreciate all you did for me.

Total Left Shoulder Replacement

Prior to my surgery I had done my research and found that Dr. Lynch is one of the Best Shoulder Replacement Surgeons in the Nation. I came from Northern California to have the Left Shoulder Replacement performed in Boise at the Surgery Center. I have degenerative Osteo Arthritis, and had waited way too long to have the surgery done.. From the first office visit to my post op visit Dr. Lynch, P A Mike and April were in my opinion the "Best in Class!" They all went over and above what I expected to experience, they made me feel confident that I had made the best choice in Surgeons and his staff. At a weeks time post op I was pain free in my left shoulder. I have regained complete use of my left arm and shoulder... I am looking forward to getting my right shoulder replacement performed by Dr. Lynch and PA Mike in the near future. These guys are "THE BEST".

Shourlder Replace,ent

I had a total shoulder replacement. Dr. Chopp is an expert surgeon. He is kind and professional. I have had a very good experience and excellent recovery. I highly recommend him. His staff is wonderful. I was treated respectfully by all staff that I interacted with. Their customer service is top notch. I will eventually need to have my other shoulder replaced and will go back to Dr. Chopp!

EXCELLENT!

Dr. Chopp and Kelly Vincent PA-C were fantastic! I had a total shoulder replacement and from start to finish it was a GREAT experience. Not only the office staff were great, the Hospital was top notch as were all the staff there too. I traveled from Northern Oregon , over 4 hours away but would travel any distance to get the care of received from them. EXCELLENT!!!!!
