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.

Been with Main Street Medical for a number of years. Always liked Dr. Johnson but his front desk person is horrible to deal with, extremely rude and I am moving to another provider because of this one person. Shouldn't be too difficult to renew prescriptions for high blood pressure meds but pharmacist requests and my (the patient) requests are continually ignored. Poor patient service is the worst complaint a medical office can receive and this office has the worst patient service my wife and I have experienced. Dr. Johnson needs to upgrade the front desk staff immediately.

Dr. Johnson has been our doctor for several years. He is an extremely intelligent and compassionate doctor which is so rare these days. We have always been completely satisfied with everyone in his office. They have always been friendly and helpful to my entire family. Lynn is always such a nice person. I highly recommend Dr.Johnson, Dr. Rozof, and the entire staff at Main Street Medical.

Dr. Johnson is my idea of a real doctor. I wouldn't go anywhere else, unless of course he sent me to a specialist. I trust him and like him, and his fees are extremely fair and reasonable by today's standards. We're lucky to have him in practice on HHI.
