I had a very good experience with the entire staff. My child didn't cooperate with the exam but everyone was understanding and the doctor provided useful information for me.

I'm very, very happy with the services from the staff and I'm very, very happy with the services that the doctor provided. Thank you all.

Staff is amazing and so caring! Dr Johnson always addresses any questions we have thoroughly and easy to understand.

The appointment was right on time, there was no waiting. Everyone was very polite and friendly. It was a positive experience. They all showed empathy and that is truly needed for working in a health care specialty that can be scary for patients and their parents. Dr. Johnson is very respectful, I appreciate his help.

The Cardiologist and staff were very kind and professional. The cardiologist really paid attention and thoroughly examined my daughter.

Overall your receptionist and front office were completely amazing. They did nothing but made me feel welcomed and you don't see that in a lot of practices anymore. The physician was very commutative and it seems like he's very passionate about what he does. If we ever need to come back he's definitely the go-to guy. Thank you guys for taking care of my daughter.

This is a very friendly office and very happy to have Dr.Johnson treat my child!

Upon entry, the receptionist to the medical assistant, they were so helpful so welcoming and so kind!! The Dr was amazing!! Thank you we are very grateful for this experience!!

I think we had a really great experience. The doctor was very clear about what we were doing today and what may come in the future. And everything was easy to understand. Everybody was courteous and kind.

I am so impressed and pleased with how staff handled my scared screaming child. It helped with the anxiety to see all the staff not trying to rush my son into getting the tests done. Amazing job!
