I have used Dr. Johnston for years and he is an outstanding dermatologist! He and his staff are all very competent and professional in every respect. He has removed numerous skin cancers from me and always takes the time to explain each situation and answer any questions I may have. His assistants are top notch, and I couldn’t be happier with their care and expertise!

I absolutely love Dr. Johnston. He is very knowledgeable about all things skin. The aesthetic treatments I received have really helped me feel better and more comfortable about aging, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else. He is very conservative about fillers and offers a professional and honest opinion. He really cares about making sure my results look natural, something that is hard to find in this industry. I am so glad to have found him and will rely on him for my future treatments. I also really appreciate his staff because they are wonderful kind people who always make me feel welcome.

Much appreciated that his office directed me to come into the office immediately to address concerns I mentioned during my phone inquiry. Later, as promised, they called as soon as they received results of my biopsy.
