    Dr. Johnson is not only a compassionate doctor who genuinely cares about his patients, but he also listens attentively to their concerns and takes them very seriously. He is one of the best doctors I know, and I highly recommend him to anyone I know who is looking for a reliable and caring medical professional.

    Came in for my annual physical and if I were to give it an overall grade, it would be an "I " for incomplete.. No checks of my arteries, lungs, or discussing my questionnaire questions. No direct questions to solicit a response, seemed like the Dr. Was Running behind or something and appeared to be in a hurry to get to the next patient as if he was on the clock...
