Michael H. Johnson, MD

Saw Dr. Johnson 2 years ago for trigger thumb in my left hand, same things were starting in my right thumb. So grateful to have been able to schedule with him again and it get it taken care of quickly.

I had a CMC Thumb Arthroplasty 3 months ago due to searing osteoarthritis pain in the base of my thumb and the inability to function day-to-day due to unexpectedly dropping and breaking things. I chose to have him treat it first conservatively with a cortisone injection, which reduced the swelling, but not the overall daily pain. I was warned that the injection would be very painful, but that was minimized by using topical numbing agents and talking to me calmly while doing it. The after-surgery regimen and therapy has been a bit tough, but nothing that he didn't warn me about. At least that constant pain is gone! At my 3-month appointment, he took the time to explain how my fingers function together and the best way to move forward, knowing that this is now my "new normal." I appreciate that he took the time to answer my many questions thoroughly. I also think the scar will be scarcely noticeable after a few more months.

Didn't treat me like an old lady. Got me back to doing the activities I love by recommending clear next steps and action plans.

I was very pleased with my visit with Dr. Johnson! The cortisone shot really helped.

One of the best orthopedic surgeon in town. I am very happy and satisfied with the treatment. Thank you so much doctor.
