    The surgery was a success. He did great. I got the care I needed. Overall for the clinic I would suggest a little more interest in how I was doing such as asking some probing questions.

    Dr. Michael Johnson has improved my quality of life a great deal. He worked on my left knee and also my right hip. He helped to continue to bike and ski and to enjoy all my favorite sports.

    I have been researching ortho docs for some time. Dr Johnson came out with good reviews. I'm hoping to have a good outcome with my knee, and I really hope Dr Johnson does the same for me as he has done for several of my friends. (Frankly, I am terrified.)

    I am elderly and have friends that show fear in deciding for a replacement. I always suggest Dr Michael Johnson because will accurately assess their situation and will always give a honest recommendation whether to go ahead or not with the operation. He did this for me.
