My fiancé and I absolutely LOVE Dr. Johnston and we also LOVE his staff! They are always very friendly and they consistently stay on top of things like communication, scheduling, and anything we may need for the pharmacy. Our favorite nurse is Jessica because of how encouraging and inspiring she is and has been to us through my extensive healthcare journey! I have never “enjoyed” going to the Dr. But now when we do have to go in it is a pleasant experience and we are usually in and out before you know it! Keep up the Great work you guys. I hope you know that you are positively impacting lives daily. Our family Thanks You.
Sincerely,
James and Meagan Grace Guthrie
