  • Dr. Luke Johnson is a dermatologist with special training in Pediatric Dermatology, though he sees both adult and pediatric patients. He believes that his role as a doctor is to advise patients (and parents) on what he thinks would be the best course of action, and the final decision should be made jointly by both physician and patient (or parent). One reason he loves taking care of children is because in treating a child, he feels that he treats the whole family. His methods to improve skin conditions include lifestyle recommendations, medicines, surgery, and laser techniques. His expertise includes common conditions, such as acne and eczema, as well as rare disorders, such as unusual birthmarks and immunodeficiency states.

    I found Dr. Johnson to be professional, an attentive listener, willing to answer my questions. He is very personable with a quiet, calm demeanor, a good sense of humor. Dr. Johnson was very respectful and sensitive to my concerns as a patient. I felt very unrushed and 'safe' dealing with him and his staff. I am pleased to say I would recommend him to family and friends for dermatology needs.
