Derek Sant Johnson

3 years ago I walked 10 miles a day and other than my wife, that was the most important part of my life. I woke one day with excruciating pain in my knee. After an MRI he explained there is no logical reason for this phenomenon. When I asked if I can resolve it w/o surgery he said he knew of no one who has but some suggest regular walking in a pool might resolve it. I walked regularly for two years. Tremendous relief from pain but my knee still buckled out whenever I walked. I had a full knee replacement 3 months ago and I am already walking 5 miles a day. His attitude, sense of when he sees you that you are the only person he is seeing and tremendous skills (my scar is barely visible) are a testament to just some of the reasons to see him if you have knee issues. I thank him and his support staff for their time, patience and sensitivity to working with non-traditional patients. I am a 74 years old retired academic and set in my way. He taught this old dog some life-saving new tricks.

I was suffering with rt shoulder pain and Dr Johnson diagnosed my problem, treated me without surgery and now I am pain free. The office was very professional, friendly and very efficient.

DR.Johnson is very helpful and informative. I feel confident that he gave me a correct diagnosis and a treatment plan which will be beneficial.

My rehab experience after total knee replacement has been astonishing - especially compared to the experience of the patients of other doctors with the same operation. I have great ROM and was walking without even a cane after 10 days. My PTs are thrilled with my progress and say they see it with all of Dr. Johnson's patients. I don't know what he does differently, but I'm sure glad he was my doctor!
