Overview of patient comments

Summary created using AI

Patients appreciate

Dr. Michael Johnston consistently receives exceptional praise for his patient-centered approach and communication skills. Patients repeatedly highlight that he takes time to listen carefully to their concerns without rushing appointments, explains medical information in understandable terms, and answers all questions thoroughly. His responsiveness stands out as remarkable, with many noting he replies to portal messages quickly—often the same day, sometimes even on weekends. Reviewers emphasize his professionalism combined with a warm, personable bedside manner that makes patients feel genuinely cared for and comfortable discussing health concerns. Many patients have been with Dr. Johnston for 15-25 years and describe him as the best doctor they've ever had, with numerous reviews mentioning they've referred family members and friends to his practice. His punctuality, knowledge, and ability to coordinate care with specialists are also frequently commended.

Patients also share

Very few concerns appear in the reviews. One patient felt Dr. Johnston seemed rushed during their visit and suggested administrative pressure to spend minimal time with patients, though this contrasts sharply with the overwhelming majority of reviews praising his unhurried approach. Another patient mentioned that on a few occasions, Dr. Johnston didn't provide specialist referrals for certain concerns like muscle issues or incontinence when those weren't his area of expertise. One reviewer wished he had more than ten minutes to spend with patients, though again, this is contradicted by most other feedback about him taking ample time.
