My first time seeing Dr. Johnson. The minute he walked In he acted like he wanted the appointment to be over. I needed to find a new pcp, due to mine retiring. Yes, Dr. Johnson Is straight forward and made a point to let me know, even stated that He may not be the provider for me. He didn't listen to my concerns, just brushed them off and continually interrupted me every time I tried to explain. Felt like he only wanted to do the bare minimum. He really made me feel like I or my health didn't matter. Did the most basic assessment, "listened" to heart and felt thyroid. Nothing more. Very very disappointed.

I asked my provider about my ongoing back pain and he treated it very lightly and didn't really seem to care. At least that Is my Impression. He seems to be in a hurry to see the next patient.

I would definitely recommend my Dr over any other because he works out a game plan with you, versus just telling you need to do something.

Doctor was clearly extremely rushed. Told me nerve irritation could last for 18 months which was very different from what he said on the last visit. Didn't make it clear at all what level of pain should be concerning vs expected. Recommended taking lots of ibuprofen for two weeks but didn't explain why for only two weeks. Didn't leave time for questions

I was impressed with the doctor. He gave us some experience from other patients to think about - in trying to figure out what was going on with my son. I felt a bit like he wasn't listening to me but then I realized my kiddo was old enough to make a healthcare decision and the doctor was encouraging for him. It was VERY helpful (even if I still feel like my son may have mis-represented some of his issues LOL ;) !
