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.

No follow up…had secretary ‘fire’ us because I called for lab values…then she called us to remind us of appointments….??? My husband had ALS. We were out of there.

Loved Dr. Johnson & Nurse Belinda!
Husband and I had new patient visits this morning and it was great! Dr. Johnson spent an ample amount of time discussing each of our concerns and running thru our history, explaining why we experienced certain things and how to avoid them in the future. He was really relatable, kind and helpful. Loved our nurse, Belinda too! 5 stars for Dr. Johnson and his staff! Not very often you walk out of a drs office thinking "man, I enjoyed that experience" but I really did!

Left me high and dry.
Dr. Johnson was my primary care physician and then, one day he was my doctor and the next day he up and disappears. There was no message that he left Sea Coast and moved on to another area. You would sure think that he would have the courtesy to tell his patients that he was moving on and that they would have to find another primary care physician.

Worst Dr ever! Refused to see me because I disagreed with his assessment the previous visit. What kind of Dr does that? I know my body better then anyone. I'm not going to change my prescriptions based on one visit with this "Dr".

The worst. If you are stuck with Medicaid, AVOID THIS DOCTOR. He takes care of business if it’s an emergency and can ship you to ER. But forget any regular care. For just one example, I went in with pain in my lower abdomen and he told me I had mild arthritis and to come back in a year. So my appendix ruptured and I had to suffer than hell unnecessarily. That’s just one example. A couple friends go to him and they have better insurance and think he’s great.

Dr Johnson has been my internist for over 6 years . He has provided me with excellent care . Always satisfied with his knowledge and professionalism. I have multiple health issues and I feel extremely confident when he addresses my issues. He takes time to answer questions and explains my treatment. His staff is also very attentive caring and welcoming.

Dr. Johnson was fine until I actually got sick. He was indifferent, unavailable, wrong on what I had & I almost died. My husband had the same experience except for the severity.

Have seen Dr. Johnson for two visits. First visit, he noted blood sugar elevated. Referred to diabetes counselor. Diet of no sugar and carb counting. Second visit, all results were good. He is knowledgeable and quiet. He lets you ask questions etc. I think that any patient would be fortunate to have him for their doctor. Hie nurse is very nice too. jsp

I feel very fortunate and blessed that Dr. Johnson was willing to take me on as my personal Physician. While caring and compassionate, he certainly gets down to business to assure we efficiently get to any root cause of a problem. His 25 years of service to our fighting men and women as a Physician and Major in the Army show. LOVE IT! His follow through is superb. I have NEVER had to reach back to assure any referrals were made or other Dr. Appt were scheduled. I generally get a call within a
