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.

I had also known and work with Dr Flynn for MANY years .As a Technician and as a patient I can't see Dr. Flynn drinking coffee and eating doughnuts at the same time please.He is a Retired Col for the Air Force Base here at Lackland and believe me that is not his character at all.I'm sorry but take your frustrations somewheres else please.

Zero communication skills
Patients need to make plans on a day of surgery and those plans are based on the times and info given them when to arrive. I was given an arrival time and it hadn’t changed for 2 months. Less than 24 hrs prior to surgery I received a call changing the arrival time significantly and conflicted with arrangements I had made. No call from the office at any time to notify me of any change and still no call. Do not recommend this practice to anyone who would like to be informed of any scheduling changes involving your surgery. The call I received was from the surgery center but not from anyone at the practice. Very unprofessional way to run a healthcare practice.

Outstanding Practitioner
Dr Flynn treated me for a traumatic eye injury and later for cataract surgery. Dr Flynn and his staff were are friendly, courteous and professional. Above all he is a master at his trade. I can’t give a higher recommendation.

Very highly recommended.
Had Rt. and Lt. eye cataract removals with lens implants and immediately my vision improved to 20/20 without any eye wear and supper clear vision (unbelievable). Another very important part of this procedure was the short time it took and painless again unbelievable.

I have been seeing Dr. Flynn for my glaucoma since this office first opened. I find him to be thorough, polite and knowledgeable. I am a Physical Therapist, and understand the problems involved in keeping to a busy work schedule. Some days you get a lot of very involved patients and rather than rush them through, you take the time to give them quality care. I have no problem with that as some day I may be the involved patient delaying the schedule! I highly recommend him!

I really do not understand why Dr. Flynn's office makes appointments since they don't mean anything. You are packed into an office waiting room like sardines breathing 30 peoples germs. I have several illness that make it difficult to recover from certian illness that are air born like the flu. After over one hour I asked when he would see me, I was told there were still 5 ahead of me. I left due to pain because of my illness and thier chairs hurting me.

I had a glaucoma surgery done and was very pleased. I am only upset because with my new insurance he is out of the network. Great physician. I completely trust him.

after wait time of one and a half to two hours to see the doctor, I politely asked the doctor why it took so long every time I had an appointment with him. He immediately started raving and ranting that one and half hours was not a long timer/ \what do you think we are doing? Drinking coffee and eating doughnuts? I'll help you find another doctor, etc., etc.,
