What stood out in my visit mostly was Dr. Johnston‘s attitude about my involvement in my health. I found that by changing my diet. My PSA numbers dropped. She encouraged me to keep doing what I’m doing and to recheck me. I really expected the conversation to be around surgery, but because things are improving, we were both willing to wait. The diet is something I found on my own. And she just wanted to know what I did different to move the numbers. She was very supportive of my willingness to help myself.

I needed immediate follow up after hospital discharge. I was given an appt. and waited about 90 min to be seen. first visit was otherwise appropriate. Second visit I waited another 90 min during which she was doing telehealth conferences with other patients. After doing a procedure I was told that I would need 1-3 surgeries. She spoke only to my wife and not to me despite me being a physician. Thus far, the surgeries have never been scheduled, prescriptions have not been refilled, she is no reachable by any method, and her s... read more

Trying to get a follow up appointment after my brother was in the hospital. We called 4 times over the span of a week, left messages, filled out their website form asking for help and a call back. The office phone says 'use the internet' many times to make an appointment. My brother does not have internet and cannot use the internet. We called asking for help in making the appointment and no one ever returned our calls.

No doctor or office is perfect, but this is the most unorganized, incompetent practice I have ever encountered. They routinely forgot to order tests, rescheduled appointments at the last minute, and never followed up when they said they would. The phone is never answered for existing patients, and calls are rarely returned. After several weeks of trying to learn test results I gave up and found a new doctor.

Professionally personable in “bedside” manner, explains problem succinctly and needed treatment. I travel over an hour from my home to have Dr Johnston treat me. I just don’t have confidence a closer dr would take care of me like Dr. Johnston.

Dr Johnson explained everything in detail that I needed to know about my procedure 

Poor communication

Seemed to forget about me, my symptoms, and tests she had ordered. No follow through on many items. Poor communication to say the least. Kept pushing me toward a test (at a company tied to hers) that would cost me thousands of dollars, despite science contradicting it. Insurance denied it twice. This went on for several months while my symptoms persisted.

Dr, Johnston is very open and friendly; she has great bedside manner. She was very thorough her explanation of my condition. She has a plan for moving ahead,
