Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

DR ALFRED JOHNSON WAS HORRIBLE!!! I CONTRACTED SEPSIS AND A FISTULA UNDER HIS CARE. I LEFT THE HOSPITAL TO SEEK BETTER CARE BECAUSE HE DID NOT KNOW WHAT HE WAS DOING.

I recently saw Dr. Johnson for my first surgery. He has a quiet demeanor but explains the overall pocedure and answering any questions I had. The day of surgery, he went over the procedure again and assured me all would be well. I saw him immediately after waking up from anesthesia and explained everything went well and explained my follow up appt. During my follow up appt, he reviewed the pathology with me and my incisions. My wounds are healing well with no complications. I think he went above and beyond. It was a wonderful experience over all. I would definitely go back to him.

Dr. Johnson met with me prior to surgery. He asked me many questions pertaining to my surgery, checked my symptoms, and allowed me plenty of time for me to ask mine. He is a very caring doctor and explained the procedure he would be performing. He made me feel at ease about going into surgery with him. After surgery three weeks out, you can hardly see the small scars from where the doctor operated! My entire stomach had herniated under my chest and before surgery I had years of terrible reflux and pain. Dr. Johnson changed my life from one of reflux and pain to one of quality of living my best life! Thank you Dr Alfred Johnson! Dignity Health in Merced, CA is blessed to have such a skilled surgeon on their team. He is definitely one of the best
