Dr. Johnson is an excellent diagnostician and makes it his mission to improve patients’ symptoms and return their function while avoiding surgery. Highly recommend anyone see him before seeking surgical options.

Dr. Johnson is the best. I’ve been fighting a chronic degenerative lower back condition for years and even quit golfing 5 months ago. I’ve golfed every week at least once for over 20 years. I’ll be back golfing soon and have avoided surgery! It’s not magic, it’s extreme knowledge and caring. I refer all my friends to him.

What a wonderful atmosphere. Dr. Paul Johnson is so knowledgeable and makes you feel very comfortable. This was my 90 day visit after PRP for my knees and my back. My knees are absolutely fabulous! My back is getting another round of treatment because it had very extenuating circumstances. I would also like to thank Sasha his front desk, person for absolutely fabulous phone, manners, and personality while you’re in the clinic!!

I was very impressed with Dr. Johnson. His exam was more detailed than by my other doctors. Not only did he examine me but actually treated me on the spot with a steroid injection.I will refer my friends to be sure.

Dr. Johnson exceeded all expectations! He focused on finding out issues with my body that I didn’t even know about, and the easiest ways to correct my problems. There aren’t very many doctors that I have who have this approach. So glad I made my appointment with him.

Dr. Paul Johnson is extraordinary! I’m grateful to have been referred to him. He took the time to listen to my concerns and ensured that I fully understood the care plan and next action steps moving forward. He could teach other practitioners how to take the necessary time with patients and actually listen to the patients concerns. His staff member Sasha did an exceptional job as well! Great job Dr. Johnson & Sasha! Thank you both! #amazing #couldteachcoursesonbedsidemanner

Dr. Johnson was very thorough. He manipulated both my knees allowing me to feel the slight difference. He used ultrasound to confirm my knee showed nothing abnormal. I liked the way he discussed and explained my knee concerns using ultra sound images and a model of a knee. He welcomed any questions I had. He was just the Doctor I was hoping for!

Dr. Johnson has helped me in multiple ways over the years. I’ve had frozen shoulder & issues with my back. I’m building muscle again in my 50’s and doing all the sports I like to do without pain. He is very smart, kind and professional. Our entire family had seen him. I trust him completely.

The first doctor I’ve been to in many years who really understands my Ehler’s Danlos Syndrome (EDS) condition and worked with me right away to find techniques to help fight my pain and give me more joint stability. Thank you!

Dr. Johnson is the best, and I can’t recommend working with him enough!

For backstory, I’m active athletically and was lifting, swimming, and training in martial arts (Muay Thai / Jiu Jitsu) multiple times a week, but tore my trapezius about a year ago.

After recovering over a 4-5 month stretch, I was still unable to return to normal activities as my entire shoulder/neck/upper back region was no longer functioning normally (Shoulder Dyskinesia) and was causing me intense pain.

Over the past 2-3 months I’ve been working with Dr. Johnson to fix that region, and although I’m yet to return to my full normal workload, I can now do overhead lifts with no pain and my quality of life has improved substantially.

Can’t recommend him enough if you’re dealing with something similar, and will be eternally thankful for his help

Dr. Johnson is a wonderful doctor. He took his time listening to my concerns and patiently answered my questions. He was open to other alternatives and was able to get me in quickly. And he has a sense of humor!

Dr. Johnson is very knowledgeable about alternative procedures to possibly avoid surgery. About a year ago I had PRP treatments done by him I’m very happy with the outcome and thrilled to be out of pain everytime I sit down. Now we are discussing how to address my torn rotator cuff with stem cell treatment.

Dr. Johnson and Sasha are very welcoming, and the check in process was a breeze. The doctor performed a thorough exam, explaining everything to me as we went along. I was given options for my treatment plan, and supported in what I wanted to do. Dr. Johnson is so personable, and I learned a lot in that initial consultation. I am grateful to have someone so knowledgeable managing my care for the longevity of my musculoskeletal system.
