Dr. Johnson is the Best
Professional. Explained injections. Offered ideas for more exercises.
Dr. Johnson has been my doctor for over 25 years because he is calm, thoughtful and attentive to the various Orthopaedic problems I’ve had.
Dr Johnson is, in a word, exceptional. My problem was addressed timely and I was given clear recommendations. The staff was courteous and professional. My only concern, and it is a big one, is that Michelle Smith is apparently no longer in the office. What a loss to all of us ambulatory patients! She is knowledgeable, professional, personable and the only other person I want to see when Dr Johnson is not available. Several members of my family and I have been members of your practice and all feel the same. Whatever you can do to entice her back into the office would be mutually beneficial and much appreciated.
Pleasant personable and polite
Great man
Great Dr
The best!
Excellent. Very professional. And to honest. Dr. Johnson is easy on the eyes 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I like honesty that he’s not gonna do search you on me until I get therapy or do things at home to help strengthen my left knee. I don’t like how he’s booked out for two or three months but overall, I think he’s a very personable professional and he’s honest with his thoughts
