Incompetent , the entire office and doctors . If I could leave a sub zero review it would be overly appropriate. Rude , unprofessional, disorganized and almost did the wrong eye , I walked out on MU more than once , go to JCMG or about anywhere else .

My visit was wonderful with Dr. Johnson. She listened to my whole history, gave me a thorough exam, and explained everything that she was looking at. When she decided to do a procedure, she clearly explained why I needed the procedure, and what she was going to do. She was kind, compassionate and made me feel very comfortable during the procedure and any time I had a question. I would recommend her highly and I feel very fortunate to have found her and to be her patient, and I am confident that she will give me the best care!.

Dr. Johnson sets the standard in ophthalmology. As a patient, you know you are receiving the best treatment and advice. She communicates clearly and in layman’s terms. You leave her office confident that you have had a thorough exam and know exactly what the situation is with your eyes.
