Benjiamin E. jhonson MD
Dr. Johnson has a commitment to treating the whole patient. This is shown through excellent communication and a caring bedside manner, combined with a multi-disciplinary approach and excellent surgical skills leading to optimal outcomes, and ……
General surgeon providing the highest level surgical care with a focus on communication with patients and their families. Utilizes advanced minimally invasive techniques to decrease time to return of normal activities, minimize complications, and decrease length of stay. Intuitive sponsored proctor for advanced robotic surgery. Specializes in Robotic General Surgery: – Advanced Robotic Abdominal hernia repair – Robotic Colon surgeries with intracorporal anastomsis and natural orifice extractions. – Colecystectomy with Bikini-line incisions – Hiatal/paraesophageal hernia repair.
When surgery is the best course of treatment, I pride myself on a very high level of technical skills, utilizing the newest appropriate approaches and technologies. Technical excellence, utilization of minimally invasive techniques including the DaVinci Xi robotic platform has led to lower complication rates, shorter postoperative length of stay, and better outcomes for my patients compared to national averages. When patients see a surgeon, this is a time of stress and uncertainty. My goal is to help my patients through this process in a very caring manner and provide excellent outcomes.
"Treating the whole patient is central to my patient philosophy. I provide the patient with accurate information regarding their condition or diagnosis as well as the treatment options available."
