The primary provider, Dr. Johnson, whom I have seen for several years, was as always thorough and professional. I appreciate the fact that that she remembers me from previous visits and is always very helpful in answering questions and explaining things.

My husband and I both had appointments. We left raving about how much we LOVED the doctor. Fantastic bed side manner, great personality, excellent care, ability to explain complex in common language, and just one of the best appointment I have ever been too. She was present and I was truly her patient.
