How likely are you to recommend Dr. Johnston?
I went to Dr Johnston to have my gallbladder removed. He and his staff are kind and make you feel welcome at every appointment. Friends had all told me their horror stories with this procedure but it was a breeze with Dr Johnston and his team. I have a very low pain tolerance so my friends knew I would be down for weeks but I literally never took more anything more than a OTC pain reliever. I could not be more pleased with my whole experience and HIGHLY recommend this office for any of your surgical needs.
