Dr Johnson attended to my concerns very well. Answered our questions in an understandable manner and appeared to be genuinely concerned. My symptoms were vague so a definite diagnosis wasn't possible.
Dr. Brian Leif Johnson was very nice, caring and knowledgeable. He was thorough and scientific about analyzing my situation.
Continuity is nice, especially when the doctor begins the session with "It's nice to see you again". When I, in fact, had no memory of why I was there. Dr. J explained in simple terms that lit the bulb in my head. Caring, concise, knowledgeable. What more does one need?
Brian Leif Johnson, MD is very professional, knowledgeable, and concerned about my health. I served as a Nurse in the United States Navy and worked in many hospitals around the world.

Dr. Johnson is very caring, knowledgeable and kind. He has been a great resource and help when challenges arise.
Makes appointments too early and very seldom.
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.

Dr. Johnson was very personable and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain things well, and answer any questions I had.

Dr. Johnson is great and made time to explain with care about my health.
We're really happy with him
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).
Dr. Johnson is an excellent neurologist! After 15-20 years I finally got answers and a treatment plan. Wish I met him earlier on.
Pays attention and shows respect for your questions. He spoke in a vocabulary I could understand and not Doctor Speak.
Cundo tube laprimer cita le coment de la en fer medad ke es toy su friendo se pre ocupo por mi me mando aser unos es tu dios e mejorado bastante
A very thorough in his explanations.
Dr. Johnson is very easy to ask my questions to. He didn't rush me and I am very confident in the way he explained my results. Great doctor!
The DR was a great listener and very great at explaining the procedure and follow up visit. The entire visit was great and that does not happen often when you are 82 years old! Thank You Dr.
Dr Johnson has been very helpful and kind and personable with us
Listened to me engaging, explained so a 2 year could understand and all the while professional. Has a sense of humor which is refreshing in stressful situations. Would recommend Dr.Brian L. Johnson to anyone who needs his services. Very pleasant experience!
Dr. Johnson is a stellar neurologist and his great strength is listening. He didn't deflect my symptoms to other specialists, even though I have a complicated medical history. After my previous neurologist with the University of Utah Healthcare left to pursue other career opportunities, I was... not excited, per se, to meet a new neurologist, but Dr. Johnson completely won me over within the first few minutes of my first visit. He will be my neurologist of choice as long as I'm able to see him. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to others
Dr. Johnson is kind, personable, and very attentive. He never made me feel rushed and explained his conclusions well. He is great!
Speak clearly, listen to patient.
Our appointments with Dr, Johnson are always very good. Our daughter started to have frequent seizures a couple of years ago and he has helped us try to control the intensity without giving up her quality of life. He's a good listener and appreciates our questions and input.
Explained things well, seemed to take time with me
