I found Dr. Johnson to be knowledgeable. He took time with me and explained my diagnosis and answered all of my questions. One of the best experiences I have had. I would highly recommend him and his staff. Very efficient!
January 19, 2017Patricia Q.Verified patient
It was good. He was very nice and explained everything to me, so that I understood. I guess I expected something would be done to fix or alleviate the pain, but it's not time to do anything yet. Just wait - pain and swelling will come and go - and lose some weight. So, I am home - same as before.
