He is the very best surgeon in orthopedics. He is very good at following up with patients to ensure progress is made. I recommend him to everyone
Dr Johnson was very professional, knowledgeable, caring and focused on me, as a patient! Dr Johnson created an environment where my confidence level increased and I was able to make a decision to have hip surgery with Dr Johnson! He met all of my goals and answered all of my questions! He is an asset to this practice! Thank you for giving me your time today, I never felt you were in a rush to complete the appointment!
The best ortho there is.
It’s aways a pleasure visiting Eric Johnson’s office , Because I know I’m about to feel better , The man knows what to do and how to do it , I’ve have both right and left hip replacements know , I trust him 100% . And his office is assume also everyone is great.
Dr. Johnson is a wonderful doctor and a great surgeon,! He cares very much about his patients medical condition as he takes the time to evaluate each procedure with rehabilitation. Dr. Johnson’s skill in surgery results in a fast recovery with PT . I am blessed to have such a wonderful surgeon and doctor.
Dr Johnson is exceptionally skilled, he replaced my right knee and I told him I had concerns, my opinion was one and done, I told him I would never do it again and he assured me it would be fine. Dr Johnson replaced it and I'm a big guy with that being my only leg.
Excellent all the way around. He is the 👌
Very professional and concerned.
Dr. Johnson is awesome! Keeping me informed every step of the way in my knee replacement surgery. I would definitely recommend him to family and friends.
Experienced, pleasant, helpful, bright
