Access to urology care has improved in the La Porte community, with Urologist John Lynam, D.O., F.A.C.O.S., now seeing patients in La Porte.
Lynam is on the medical staff at La Porte Hospital, and is a member of Porter Physician Group. Board certified in urology, Lynam treats all types of urologic conditions in men and women, and was drawn to the profession in part because he saw his grandfather suffer from and succumb to urologic disease.
“As a urologist, I can perform surgery, which has always interested me, but I am also afforded the opportunity to connect with my patients on a personal level. The interpersonal dynamics between my patients and me are at the core of how I practice medicine,” Lynam said.
Lynam received his medical degree from Western University of Health Sciences, College of Osteopathic Medicine of the Pacific, in Pomona, California. He completed an internship at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn, and residencies in general surgery and urologic surgery at the Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine. He is fellowship trained in endourology/minimally invasive surgery from the University of Pittsburgh.
Appointments are available on Wednesdays in the Sagamore Plaza office at 400 Legacy Plaza West, La Porte. Call (219) 983-6230.
