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.

Dr. Johnston is an extremely knowledgeable doctor. He takes the time to explain a treatment plan and listens. I am grateful for him and his office staff.

I’ve had Dr. Johnston for a doctor since he was up by the old hospital. When I started with Dr. Johnston I was in a bad accident. I had been through all kinds of physical therapy acupuncture just about every medical place that there is to go for someone who couldn’t walk straight stand up straight or have any quality of life. This man took me from being a cripple with no quality of life into living I would say at least a 90% average life. Yes Sometimes I do have to take medication but continually comes up with new types of treatments he thinks out of the box and for this I am grateful. I am 73 years old and I can ride a bike I can go to a gym I can clean my house I could do my yardwork. And I read things that say that that clinic is not a good place it just absolutely astonishes me I live up north and I drive three times every three months to come down and see Dr. Johnston.I also recommended him to several members of my family. And they came out on the other side of good. Thank you Dr

Wow. What a difference a year makes. This clinic now answers phone calls seeking Appointments, etc. Dr. Johnston is a great guy and took the time to explain the recommended procedure and hear my concerns. I chose to not use anesthesia and being wide awake during this procedure can confidently state, you can rely on this doctors skills. The office staff as well are friendly helpful and available to address your billing, scheduling and refill needs and concerns. Whatever took place this is a night and day turnaround from last year and I will continue to return as a patient for the foreseeable future.

Was referred by my PCP. 15 minutes is all the time I got in my initial visit All subsequent visits were with Nurse Practitioners...seldom the same one Was treated as a drug addict. Was falsely chastised for failing to adhere to treatment guidelines. As "pain specialists" Dr Johnston's clinic was nothing more than an outlet for opioid prescriptions. Here's the kicker... when I revealed that the previously mentioned chastisement was unfounded, in their true adherence to the Hippocratic Oath, they kicked me to street.
