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.

Very caring and not rushed appointments. Very knowledgable. 100%. He saved me from stage 4 cancer. As for time sitting in an office waiting for Doctor. When it comes to your health. I don't mind when you are waiting on a doctor you are confident in

Horrible! Money hungry. Lack of consideration for the patient. Horrible bedside manners. Dr. Johnson is not only a liar( we were told that Methotrexate chemo was not performed in Germantown) it was! It was profitable for him to perform it in Downtown. He finally referred my husband to a Lymphoma specialist the day before my husband passed. In the words of the specialist had he been referred earlier , I may have been able to help him. Disgrace of a Doctor. Obviously, he forgot his oath.

The man walks in, doesn't greet the patient o family member, stares at his computer screen and talks to it and not the patient, doesn't speak loud enough for older family member to hear, asks the patient what medicine THEY think they should be taking, asks patient when was the last time they had xx test (shouldn't that be on your chart??? yes, the one you are staring at). And then the man just stands up and walks out of the room when he's done - but you don't know if he is coming back or what.
