Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Supportive and informative

Communicates effectively, offers alternatives, gives me some autonomy with treatment, and is very supportive. Will answer any questions or concerns I have, and makes sure I feel comfortable with treatment decisions before proceeding with anything.

No effective treatment
My experience I. Treating my son hs not been effective. He has kept him on the same med at the same dose with no improvement. Hasn’t added any second med that is now available either. I wish my son would go to someone else.

Bad Medicine
Dr. Johns overprescribed and over medicated me for 18 months. He is under investigation by the Minnesota Board of Medical Licensing.

He's in the business to make money
I left an expensive gadget in the treatment room, and they played dumb when I asked about it, they repeatedly told me lies, and they'll drop you like a live grenade if you miss an appointment. (Dr. Johns is in private practice now, the information is dated).

I have been diagnosed with severe and persistent depression and have been struggling for over 20 years.I have had other doctors tell me there was no treatment left for me and my life as miserable as it was the best it would ever be. Then I found Dr. Johns by accident. He and his staff took me on as patient and truly saved my life. He is very easy to work with. He truly listens and gives you options. He’s a great problem solver and his ketamine treatment has given me life back. I owe a huge debt to him that I can never repay. I just want people to know how absolutely magnificent he is!

I have referred to Dr Johns and his team at North Memorial for many years. I continue to be respectful of his expertise, attention and patience with complex trauma patients.
