      Dr. Johnston is simply the best. He is caring and compassionate. He is straightforward and with kindness delivers difficult news to hear but does not shirk that responsibility, nor does he gaze downward. He looks you In the eye connects with you and shares that moment. Equally, when it is good news he greets you with that beaming smile of his, he delivers joyful news.

      My provider told me "oh, it's cancer" but did not refer me to an oncologist. He did refer me for follow up testing. He was friendly and easy to understand but the visit felt rushed.

      The visit to Hopkins and Dr. Johnston was great, and I understand why he has such a good reputation. The same was true of his staff and the nurses. The reason I said that I don't have the test results, is because the test in not until next Friday. I have great confidence in Hopkins and Dr. Johnston's team. Thanks
