Great experience Dr. is very nice, knowledgeable of my condition. I would recommend.
Dr. Johnson Is A Pleasure To Work With. She Is Caring And She Listens To All Of My Concerns. She Is Understanding And Very Professional.
Dr Johnson spent time with me. She was not rushing through to see next patient. She listened. She thoroughly explained everything . She answered all of my questions. I felt as though she actually cared about me as a person, not a number or statistic. I felt valued and heard.
Once the provider understood what we were trying to accomplish, the VA and I, she was able to accommodate easily. The Condition was explained to me previously, she did explain to me a bit more about it and further explained the process of getting this procedure might take a while as there are only a few companies in the US that do it.
Dr. Johnson has been very concerned about my health status and treatment protocol. Am totally satisfied with her being my provider.
