    Dr. Johnson was very personable and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain things well, and answer any questions I had. I didn't feel rushed during the appointment or pressured into any treatments or medications in which I felt uncomfortable. Dr. Johnson is by far the best neurologist I have seen.

    It's nice to have doctors who aren't nearing retirement. Dr. Johnson lays it out as he sees it. No pulling punches. I could see him think about what he wanted to say. Then he delivered his information clearly, and concisely (with just a touch of "yes, we care about you).

    He was super nice. He cares about my epilepsy and understood how I feel with my seizures. He gave me some options and I'll see Him in a few months to see if my seizures stop with this new medicine.
