    Dr. Johnson is extremely kind, considerate and knowledgeable. He compassionately helped me to understand my diagnosis, reviewed medications, gave reminders of old medications to discard, encouraged overall health through exercise, and offered a recent FDA approved procedure to help stem the effects of Alzheimer's.
