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.

Great results. Great doctor.
Dr Johnson is wonderful professionally and she is a joy to talk to. Explains everything in detail. My eyesight has improved amazingly. I am so excited after having two cataract surgeries that I CAN SEE! I did not realize how compromised my vision was. So glad she is my eye specialist.

Great Dr
My husband and I have been seeing Dr Johnson for several years now. She is always professional, explains everything and delightful to talk with. When it came time for cataract surgery she was wonderful explaining the types of lens and the pros and cons of each. I was ready to spend the extra cost for laser. Dr Johnson said it was not needed in my case so saved us a lot of money. I went into surgery very confident I was in great hands. She called that evening to check up me. I would highly recommend Dr Johnson for all of your eye care.

She is delightful and competent!
My wife and I chose to go to Dr Denise Johnson after a glowing recommendation from a friend. We are both very pleased with Dr. Johnson. She just performed cataract surgery on my eyes with excellent results. I am delighted! I was impressed by her guidance as to what type of intervention would be best for me. Namely, manual removal of the cataracts and insertion of standard monofocal lenses. I was all set for laser-assisted surgery and multifocal lenses but she explained that it would be a waste of money since my astigmatism would still require spectacles for correction. My 77-year old eyes are seeing better than they were when I was a child. I have been wearing corrective lenses since I was 7 & 1/2 years old. Dr Johnson is fun to talk to, she listens, she analyzes, she discusses, she explains. She is the way every physician should be: caring and competent.

Dr. Johnson is awesome. She is a excellent doctor. My mom just finished having her 2nd Cataract surgery done. I felt everything went as smooth as possible. Dr. Johnson is knowledgeable, relatable and funny. She put my elderly mom worries at ease.

The Greatest of all Time
No I'm not talking about Muhammad Ali. I'm speaking of Dr. Denise Johnson. Dr. Johnson is beautiful and has a most beautiful spirit. She is very knowledgeable and explains procedures in a way that patients understand. Putting her patients at ease with whatever a pending procedure/surgery will be is part of her charm. In all of my years I can honestly say that Dr. Johnson is the best doctor I've ever had. And that's any type of doctor. I pray that she is blessed beyond all things imaginable.

Cataract Surgery
Dr Johnson made me very comfortable from the initial evaluation through pre surgery and surgery. She answered all my questions and concerns. She gave me options for my post surgery vision. She called me at home after each surgery to see if I had any concerns. I am very pleased with my results and Dr. Johnson is a wonderful surgeon who goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy with your results!
