Dr. Christopher Lyons, MD

I was referred to him for a hamstring tear, and as soon as he walked into the room, he had a negative attitude. Right away he told me he would not do the surgery to fix my torn hamstring. He told me to do Physical Therapy. I told him I spoke to my PT lady where I work and she compared mt torn hamstring as the same tear Dak Prescott had from the Dallas Cowboys, his response was then go see Dak Prescott's surgeon.

Saw Dr. Lyons for knee pain. Brought a CD with an MRI of the knee ordered by another doctor. Dr. Lyons took a 5 second look at the scan then announced I needed a knee replacement (I only have a torn meniscus). He did concede to give me a steroid shot in my knee but said I should schedule surgery to replace the knee. I have never had any issues with this knee until a few months ago, and my Xray shows no arthritis. Very pushy and makes jokes constantly which are not funny, but rather insulting. Very unprofessional in attitude.

I started having pain in my right hip, I have a prior injury from years ago and was told to see this joke of a doctor for intel on whether or not my hip is fractured again or not. Christopher Lyons proceeded to tell me that “if I was worried about any issue I should have thought about that before I decided to get pregnant”. He also told me my husband would not be good at watching my baby, and asked how I could afford daycare. He went WAY out of line, I wish I recorded the conversation because it was appalling. Very condescending and clearly thinks very low of women, at least that was the experience that I had the privilege of receiving.

Receptionist was great! She was pleasant and seemed to embrace the motto 'Service with a smile.' The nurse was pleasant, but seemed in a hurry to leave the room. Dr. Lyons didn't smile during my visit. The most pleasant comment from Dr. Lyons was that he hoped my cortisone shot worked. He was more focused on my overall paralysis than the pain in my shoulder and hip. Since I was not going to have a complete recovery and walk. I wasn't going to need muscle tone. His experience was that since I needed my shoulder to function daily, I wouldn't have a good recovery after surgery.

Speaking of exceeding all expectations, while my injury was certainly unpleasant, Dr, Lyons did everything he could, from the quick alleviation procedure during the first office visit, to squeezing me in for surgery and staying late to do it. Just one day after, and I am already feeling better. Besides the surgical skills, Dr. Lyons is very personable, spends time with a patient, and actually has a great sense of humor (not a mandatory quality for a surgeon, but certainly makes you feel better). Great Physician, highly recommend.

First of all as soon as I walked up to the receptionist she mentioned they don't give opioids for pain ! I didn't say anything about them .I don't care for Dr Lyons , I had a stroke and have some inflammation in my right hip that's causing pain Dr mentioned a cortisone shot to help ! Yeah anything to boffer the pain I have been on tramadol for both knee replacements and didn't become addicted on them I don't abuse meds, all I wanted was something to take the edge off he gave me the impression that he really wasn't interested in my need therefore I don't recommend him as a compassionate person regardless of what the laws of the state are not everyone abuses a pain med I only use them . So find a more sympathetic doctor when I can't deal with I've had 14 surgeries the pain .

I've been Dr. Lyons' patient for about 5 years. He's extremely experienced and knows his stuff, always right on with a diagnosis and next steps. Smart guy who knows how to cut to the chase and address the problem. Always helped me.

Dr. Lyons did an IME. He was pleasant. He reviewed CD and written reports. Dr. Lyons wrote his own report detail for the insurance company. The office staff was pleasant. The office was clean. The wait was acceptable. The insurance company respected the doctor. He was professional to deal with.

My 25+ year best friend was refused to have full knee replacement. By at least 5 of her docs and specialists.This guy went and did it anyway. My friend had it done over a week ago. And has NOT woken up since the surgury. What was this guy thinking ??? Really....

Referred to by my family doctor. Went today for first time. Office staff very fun to be around and helpful. It was a happy atmosphere. Needed an x-ray which was done at their location....no waiting for a disc to deliver. Dr. Lyons could not have been nicer and "fixed" by bad knee. Talked about his love of horses and various sporting events for the horses.....a lot in common. Had trouble locating the office with my GPS but a call to his office got me back on the right track. Great Day!

Dr. Lyons did a left Shoulder replacement for me, I got FULL Range and FULL use of my left shoulder. After that I fractured my right Hip he saw me on a Monday and X-Rays showed NO break, He being the Knowledge Surgeon that he is had scheduled me for surgery that Thursday without my knowledge and sent me for an MRI, that came back showing a hairline fracture of my right that he corrected the Thursday of that week with 3 screws. I would recommend him HIGHLY.

He is everything that is wrong with medicine today. Arrogant, uncaring, condescending, and apparently not very knowledgeable in the field he is supposedly an expert in. Appointment lasted all of two minutes and was a complete waste of time. He wont be getting paid for the botched job he did, or didn't do, as it were. Save yourself the aggravation. Go to a better Dr. He's an absolute disgrace.

Surgery and post care was excellent! I had hip replacement surgery and am doing great for over three years after surgery.

The doctor told me that a broken finger is drama (quote) and he told my husband when he asked him if it was normal after 2 wks for my hand and finger to be in so much pain still.... "it is not like she got hit on the head with an axe or something". Really professional communication skills and great bedside manner. Will NEVER let him make money of of me again or subject myself to such a lack of compassion or professionalism.

Very nice bedside manner explains everything in great detail is very understanding And in my opinion a very good surgeon

Knee replaced two years ago, nothing but trouble/pain ever since. Kept telling me it was fine. Second opinion with another practice doctor, tests done. Falling apart AND severe infection!! I now need extensive surgery to correct the mess. Stay away!

I had a very bad experience with Dr. Lyons. In october 2015 i had a knee replace and was a disaster; i am suffering every day. I'll be operated July 29 2016 for the second time by another doctor and i hope it goes well. Stay away from Dr. Cristhopher Lyons.
