I wish all my doctor visits were like this. Dr. Johnson may have been super busy as all practices seem to be these days, but he appeared calm, listed to my concerns/questions, gave me all the answers I needed as well as several potential treatment options.

The doctor was very thorough. He went though all of my labs and scans from my medical history to help diagnose me. He took the time to listen to all of my symptoms I had been experiencing with care and concern.
