Treating war-crippled veterans in Ukraine

“A huge thank you to Dr. James Lynch and his lovely wife Jodie for the free treatment they provided to over 50 soldiers in Kyiv. These are People with a capital letter and a big heart who came to treat war-crippled veterans and volunteers who also suffered injuries and wounds… Dr. Lynch and his lovely wife Jody and their team – brought to Ukraine a unique technique – and new method of treating PTSD (stellate ganglion block). Dr. Lynch is a combat medic and doctor who served in the US Army for over 30 years, went through the 1991 Gulf War, Afghanistan, Africa, Iraq, etc. A fantastic doctor and a wonderful person who was not afraid to come to Kyiv, which is regularly shelled by the Russians: ballistic missiles, drones, etc. A big thank you to Dr. James Lynch and Jodi for their courage and their kind heart and contribution to the treatment of Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers, veterans and volunteers!  ❤️❤️❤️”
