Dr. Johnson is amazing. Yes, he's to the point and has a dry sense of humor (which I love) and after suffering for years being afraid to take the leap, I had both knees replaced within two months. I am now 6 weeks out from the last surgery and I feel like a brand new person! He and his team are fantastic at what they do.

Really nice people. They cant do anything for me though. If you have pain and live with it daily, chronic, unrelenting, it isnt the place to go unless something needs operated on. Sent me back to my regular doctor who also cant seem to help. Oh well. I got recommendation to change my lifestyle. As a caregiver, I should have taken care of me. Who will be there for me?

Well before I went in I had read the reviews on here and looked at my boyfriend and said, as long as we dont get Dr. Johnson then we should be good. Got Dr. Johnson and guess what HE IS GREAT! I don't care what the reviews said he is AWESOME. Straight to the point, straight up doctor not wanting to mess around wants to do the job and do it amazingly. So thank you Dr. Johnson I would recommend you to anybody.

Went in for knee pain. Saw Dr. Vallier. Most awesome doctor ever! He gave me a knee injection can't recall the name. It is a gel to help cushion the knee. I was very anxious and Dr. Vallier was patient and very kind. He first numbed my knee and then gave the injection. I had only a slight uncomfortable feeling with the first injection but it numbed right away and the gel injection was pretty much painless. I highly recommend Dr. Vallier. His staff is equally kind. I had a very positive experience.

Wesley Johnson has the worst bedside manner! He is insulting, rude and condescending. Both of my parents went to see him, and he was rude and cocky. My mom left his office in tears by how she was treated. This guy is completely unempathetic and unprofessional!

Doc Johnson is a arthritis EXPERT! He has zero knowledge on necks and backs. He is a joke and I would avoid him like the plague! All of your pain will be due to arthritis. Unless of course your spine is sticking out of your skin, then maybe he will diagnose you correctly. Avoid.

Received excellent care from one physician and repeated care with him for my shoulder. Referral to a different physician for spine and nerve pain issue. Totally different experience. I felt like maybe my poor treatment may of been due to the fact I am currently on OHP? I have mixed reviews about this clinic. Oh and forget about their patient portal being of any help. Waste of time.

The best ortho doctor ever. Or should I say surgeon. Dr. Hobson is not only skilled but is kind and attentive to a patience needs. His after care is also the best. No surgery then (as others have done) no no show, he and his asst. are there every day and checking on you even behind the scenes. If you are looking for a GREAT medical professional to do whatever if possible to make you better you need to go no further. The staff are also the best. Please know and trust this review.

In 2018 I visited Dr Garry Vallier for an evaluation of a very sore, stiff and inflamed left hip. With X-ray images, his interpretation was that I had good cartilage spacing, and I should use NSAID and glucosamine. His words were. no doctor will replace those joints. This diagnosis was refuted by two highly respected osteopathic surgeons out of area.

Both of my hip joints became painful from cartilage breakdown, and I now have two replacements. Dr Vallier's diagnosis cost me years of pain, and trips to Portland seeking special services based on his opinion. From this experience I cannot recommend this practice.

When my sixteen year old son suffered an accident in Washington while on vacation that ended in his big toe being amputated, he had emergency surgery in Washington and by the time we got here, he just needed his stitches out. SCO took him in on an emergency basis and removed the stitches. The doctor was kind and explained everything that was going to happen before he did it.

Excellent work! My husband had an office visit and the doctor found his problem pretty quickly, after being misdiagnosed at Waterfall Clinic three different times. They've set my husband up with physical therapy already and an MRI is forthcoming. Again, great work!

Oh my goodness! Who would of thought I was facing spine surgery? I begged for a MRI from my Primary care Doctor, went to ER in excruciating pain, no MRI finally found out I was right it was my spine. Met with Wesley Johnson who confirmed it was a herniated disc. He was very compassionate and said he'd get me to 98%. Moving his schedule to do Emergency surgery on my back he repaired damage and relieved my nerve pain Wow I appreciate his talents and do not hesitate to make him your Special Orthopedic surgeon

I had a consultation with Dr. Johnson. Both my husband and I really liked him and he was the first orthopedic surgeon who took the time to do tests further than an MRI and a few Xrays. He is the 3rd orthopedic surgeon I have gone to. Gallows in Eugene did my second surgery on my back. She had a terrible bedside personality and I likened her to Cruela Deville.

She was a hideous person and as a surgeon who came highly recommended, she screwed my back up worse. Don't go to her. Wes Johnson is my new orthopedic doctor and he is with my family to stay. BTW, my husband is in the medical field and has been for 24 years, he was highly impressed with him.

What was supposed to be a fairly basic knee scope turned into anything BUT. I would NEVER recommend anybody have surgery by this doc. It took my husband MONTHS to recover! At least he paid the bill.
