This man is kind, caring, professional, knowledgeable and all heart. He saw me as an emergency for a major swelling of my face and knew right away what to check for and how to put me at ease. I have other health issues and he was able to modify my treatment to fit my other medical needs. He monitored my vitals for an hour and even called my primary care physician himself to try to get me an appointment because I was too dizzy. What's even more incredible about him is that he called me and my other doctors to follow up several times and let me know that he is available to help! I am deeply impressed and touched by his work ethic as well as his personal ethics. Ten stars, Ten hundred stars.

I was had the worst pain I had ever felt in my life Friday night.. I was referred to the office in ocean parkway and kings highway.. On the phone I explained the pain I was in and the lovely woman told me to come right in... I was so scared thinking I was going to need surgery... After my x ray dr Johnson told me I needed my wisdom tooth removed.... He was extremely calm and had given me the option of being awake or put to sleep... I opted to be put to sleep.... I was unaware of dr Johnson removing my tooth... after the procedure the nurses made sure I was ok. everyone in that office is so wonderful!!!! I owe dr Johnson my life!!! He saved my life and the staff was so attentive!!!! Thank you!!!!?

He has a major ego, if you ask him one question he throws you out of the room and sends you to go find someone else.

One star is the lowest it will allow me or I would have rated this dentist lower. Let me name the positives. The office was very clean and modern. The staff was ok and there were some assistants inside that were very kind and patient in answering all my questions and concerns. The waiting room is a little small but the assistants tried to help by letting the 2 people that were with me although the policy was one.
Now for the ugly. There was a doctor, who looked like a oversized biker, and he acted like one too. The way he spoke was very unprofessional and non assuring. I thought that they're supposed to make me comfortable. I feel like he was saying the things on purpose because he wanted to make my experience unpleasant as possible. Why would I think such a thing? We'll he asked me whether is like to go under Anastasia (where you go to sleep) and I said no thank you because I didn't think I'd need it (for wisdom teeth extraction). I had looked up videos on YouTube where people were having 4 teeth removed and they were not on Anastasia. Also the operation only lasted about 10 minutes and the Anastasia would knock me out for about a hour and I'd be very heavily medicated after. This seems to have hurt his ego because I didn't accept it and he proceeded to call my decision illogical and that it doesn't make sense. He was talking this shit while my mouth was numb and couldn't even say anything back. Also, may god kill me if I'm lying, he told me ' you don't understand what you're going to go through' implying that it was very bad and trying to make me regretful that I didn't take the Anastasia. Good thing that I had done my research and wasn't scared otherwise I can see someone else being terrified. So then he numbed me, and he was defiantly a little rough but maybe it was necessary so no complaint about that, but I do think that he cut my skin way too deep because I saw videos on YouTube and the did not cut that deep as my marks are. When he was stitching me up he kept stabbing my tongue with the needle and wasn't even being careful not to. Didn't tell me to move my tongue or anything. He did his work and walked out the room and did not shake my hand or anything like that, didn't even say bye. (And he wasn't very friendly when I first saw him either). I think that the reason he was angry was that I declined something that would have made him a lot of money. The Anastasia is probably very expensive compared to the regular thing. I also saw videos on YouTube of people removing all 4 impacted wisdom teeth in one visit, and I found out that this particular doctor only did 2 at a time. Maybe he wanted me to use Anastasia, then come for a second visit and do it again, so he can support whatever expensive habit he has. The instructions said that my cut was supposed to stop bleeding after 3 hours but I tasted blood well after 24 hours so I know he fucked me up on purpose. He was a very spiteful piece of crap and I don't like how he talked to his workers. He was very rude to them although they were great at handling me. I made a request to keep the teeth and other things to the nurses and they were too scared to even ask him and kept telling me to ask him myself. I didn't want to ask him either because he made me uncomfortable. I was so angry, that if I had seen him get stabbed in front of my eyes by a mugger I would not have felt bad, and I am a fan of peaceful Buddhist teachings. This guy had an ego the size of his head. He made the experience very unpleasant for me and his nasty attitude was extremely unprofessional and over the line. How can I trust that he didn't mess me up on purpose. I would rather punch perform surgery on myself then go back to this guy. Please don't let this terrible human take your money, instead come out with your experiences and let him go out of business.

I came in last Friday, Dr Johnson kindly sent me home because I had breakfast. Came back yesterday as nervous as ever, his calm confidence calmed me. It was quick, recovery was painless. I'm writing this the day after I had a molar & wisdom extracted which were impacted. My mouth feels like new!! Awesome surgeon with great hospitality, compassion & skills!!
