Dr. Valerie L. Johnson, MD

"Look at the real/ other reviews. Probably the worst experience I’d ever had with a Dr. Long wait times. Front desk is extremely rude and unprofessional. This is my second encounter I had with Dr Johnson. She’s very dismissive, impatient , lacked bedside manner. Not only she was extremely dismissive but she did not care at all, every time I tried to ask a question soon as I got one word in she shut me down didn’t allow me to speak, rolled her eyes and sighed. I felt very rushed. It’s disheartening bc she as a WOC should know first hand how frustrating or difficult it can be to find a good Dr for reproductive health. As a young WOC , I entrusted her, I thought I could but gave me the worst experience I ever had and dismissed me. I do not recommend her. Don’t waste your time"

"This might be helpful to someone. I just had an endometrial biopsy with Dr. Johnson. Prior to that, I went on Youtube to watch some videos and read up on comments of individuals who have had this procedure. After reading all the comments, I was very scared and was not sure I wanted to do this procedure. I prayed, went in with my daughter and my experience was very good. She used a numbing spray, which was very helpful. Here is my overall experience: It was a little bit uncomfortable but NOT painful like I read online. Dr. Johnson made me comfortable and talked with me throughout the entire process and I was responding to her like we were having a normal conversation. Thankfully, I didn't chicken out because of the comments I ready online. Thank you, Dr. Johnson!!!!"

"I am a new patient of Dr. Johnson. She was very professional, kind, and knowledgeable. The entire staff, that I met on this day was just as thorough and nice as well."

"Dr. Johnson is absolutely amazing. I have been going to her for about 10 years. She is extremely patient, kind, and has a gentle spirit. From dealing with PCOS, to fibroids and just recently my first pregnancy she sat and listened to every concern/question I've had over the years and never one time did I feel rushed or didn't leave with a thorough understanding of options. Furthermore, she allows you to weigh all your options and gives you time to make decisions that are best for you without being pushy. She recently cared for me during my first pregnancy and displayed a tremendous amount of compassion. I moved to the south side of town about 2 years ago but I will continue to drive to Sandy Springs so that Dr. Johnson can take care of all by OB/GYN needs!"

"Dr. Johnson was not my OB. I met her because I was on bed rest at Northside Hospital and went into labor at 26 weeks with my son after my water broke early at 24 weeks. It was a terrifying experience having a baby that was going to be born that early. Dr. Johnson was on call for Dr. Petchenik's practice, as Dr. Petchenik was my regular OB. Dr. Johnson did a great job at calming me down throughout the hours of labor, getting me medication to help with the pain and explaining to me my options for medication, including the epidural, and delivered my baby very easily. So although I don't know how she is with her patients who see her throughout their pregnancy, I know that if she has to deliver your baby, she will do an excellent job with you, your baby and your family."
