Patient Reviews
Jan 25, 2020
Dr Johnson saw me for a critical medical matter, it was discovered at my primary Drs the same day, if left untreated I could go blind, have a stroke or an aneurysm. To ease my concerns the office went out of their way to schedule the procedure the same day. The Drs patience with my questions was exceptional. His knowledge and caring manner made me feel completely at ease. I thank him and his staff for addressing my problems professionally, making me feel comfortable thru everything, I was very chatty, due to nerves but they managed to do an excellent job despite this distraction, LOL. It was my birthday and it had a happy ending. I HIGHLY recommend this surgical physician
