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 pain; much to gain!
I have had 2 molar extractions and a dental implant; all performed by Dr. Johnson. I have a history of dry socket as well as high tolerance to numbing agents, which often means that not enough novocain is initially administered. I was spared the extreme pain due to dry socket, had the appropriate level of Novocain injected and got through all of the appointments needed to prepare for and place the molar implant, without a hitch. All procedures went smoothly, without discomfort or anxiety, due to Dr. Johnson’s knowledge and skills, as well as his ability to keep the mood light and upbeat

Horrible experience
I’m a little late in writing this but as the years go by my teeth are getting worse. Dr. Johnson was to pull all 4 of my wisdom teeth, for some reason he only pulled two. It was Father’s Day weekend, I guess he was too busy. I was told not to eat or drink until the bleeding stopped, which I did…I became dehydrated, ended up in the er where it took him all day to come to see me. He nor anyone in his office reached out to me at all to see how I was feeling. Not only did I end up in the er, I had a piece of tooth still in my gum which caused me a lot of pain. Dr. Johnson told me to go see my regular dentist. I had to wait 3 days because it was on the weekend. When I went back for a follow up visit, he didn’t address what happen at all. Now that he only removed two of the wisdom teeth, my teeth are all shifting. Horrible experience!
