About

Visits may be scheduled as in-office appointments or as remote visits via video. If you schedule a telehealth appointment, you will receive a confirmation call, instructions and a video link prior to your appointment.

Treating the whole patient is central to my patient philosophy. I provide the patient with accurate information regarding their condition or diagnosis as well as the treatment options available. I help my patients understand their situation completely to make informed decisions. I ensure patients and their loved ones have all questions answered.

When surgery is the best course of treatment, I pride myself on a very high level of technical skills, utilizing the newest appropriate approaches and technologies. Technical excellence, utilization of minimally invasive techniques including the DaVinci Xi robotic platform has led to lower complication rates, shorter postoperative length of stay, and better outcomes for my patients compared to national averages. When patients see a surgeon, this is a time of stress and uncertainty. My goal is to help my patients through this process in a very caring manner and provide excellent outcomes.

Dr. Johnson was amazing. Very patient and thorough. After I saw how long he spend with me explaining everything, I understood why there was a little bit of a delay in seeing him. I was seeing someone from Northwestern, but no more!

I appreciated Dr. Johnson's respect of my belief as one of Jehovah's Witnesses and how he didn't let that become a issue for the surgery. I also have appreciated the kind manner he dealt with surgery. He did a great job with the procedure and so far my recovery has gone very well.
