I have been going to Dr. Johnson for years. We can communicate with each other very well. He listens closely to my concerns and suggestions and doesn't criticize me for my limited knowledge of medical decisions. We can discuss my health without him playing the "Who's the doctor here, me or you?" card. I am a Jehovah's Witness and do not accept blood transfusions.… See more

My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
I am board-certified in internal medicine and have been practicing primary care in Rhode Island for more than 20 years. I am experienced in all aspects of outpatient and inpatient internal medicine. I am affiliated with Rhode Island and Miriam Hospitals and speak fluent Greek.
I invite you to experience the difference between a traditional volume-driven primary care practice and a practice that delivers individualized, conscientious care without time pressures.

Though I have many wonderful Dr. Johnson stories I will share just one. Two years ago my wife and I were on vacation. After day one of our trip I developed a very upset stomach. I went to see two different doctors, both ran a number of tests and both concluded that I must have some sort of food poisoning. When we returned home and I still was not feeling well I went to see Dr. Johnson. Dr… See more
I was extremely ill in 2003 and had been misdiagnosed and needed serious help. I found Dr Johnson by asking who the best was in Providence and multiple people recommended Dr Johnson. He helped get me to diagnostician clinic and get back to health. I have lived in UK and 4 states but always keep Dr Johnson as my primary and love his new practice. Saying that, his level of care and knowledge… See more
Dr Johnson treats the entire patient. He is concerned about their physical well-being and their mental health. His care is delivered with conversation and compassion.
