These heartless Doctors…read morewill treat you like pond scum and use any lame excuse to let you suffer in agonizing pain in your winter years. They will not prescribe opiods period. They use one drug test lab and it is a joke. I know bad results when I see it. I retired from D.O.D getting at the truth was what I do. There should be two independent labs not one. I have have seen men in high places that are full of themselves. I wonder how they will hold up to a peer review. Malpractice? No. Best Medical Practice? Oh NO.

RE: KARMA WILLIAMS, PA and BREANNA, JOHNSTON PAIN STAFF My…read morepickup at the pharmacy went sideways this weekend, In the midst of the usual chaos of a Monday, I attempted to reach out to my provider at JOHNSTON PAIN MANAGEMENT due to an issue with my script at CVS in Hampstead. After numerous calls and messages, sweet BREANNA picked up the phone at 2 PM and just owned the whole situation! She made contact promptly with KARMA and I have no doubt that between the two of these professional and personable women, I'll have my meds today. Please thank both Breanna and Karma for me! With Breanna, her patience, willingness to help, and reassurance helped to calm me and I feel confident that the dilemma is resolved! I'm so grateful for Karma and staff members like Breanna who understand how frustrating these situations can be for the patient. Her attention to the details of the situation kept me from having to repeat the whole scenario over and over and she just took it forward, assuring me that everything would be resolved and that she'd call me back promptly, I felt complete relief after a stressful morning. With Karma, I always feel that I am the only patient at the practice, she makes you feel that special! I've been with her for roughly 10 years and the undivided attention that she shows me during my visits are such a blessing to me. While this world is spinning at breakneck speed, Karma truly listens to every word I have to say and I know that she truly cares for me and all of her other patients, Mondays are just heavy days but thankfully, these two beautiful souls have taken away my stress regarding receiving my overdue meds. God bless all of you there at Johnston Pain! Sharon

I can guarantee one thing I will never go there. 2 hours past the appointment and no apology or explanation. To me this shows a total lack of professionalism and decency. I wouldn't trust this doctor as far as I could throw him. I will find another, more professional doctor for any further checkups or follow-ups. He shouldn't be allowed to practice medicine in this town.

Jade set realistic expectations for me, which we exceeded. Jade, her supervisor Lindsey, and everyone in billing, registration, and scheduling was always very courteous, professional, and responsive.

They are aware renovations in the lobby are needed and my understanding is that they are planned. Marci, Swansboro NC

On Thursday, 08-15-2024, I had the absolute pleasure of visiting Onslow Diagnostics Center located…read moreat Onslow Diagnostics, 200 Memorial Dr, Jacksonville, NC 28546. This was a pre-op visit for my upcoming Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery) with Dr. Carol Johnston of Office Park Eye Center. This is my second experience with Dr. Carol Johnston after having cataract surgery on both eyes several months earlier. Having experienced an outstanding experience and remarkable results with that procedure, I had no reservation or apprehension regarding my upcoming blepharoplasty procedure. I entered the Onslow Diagnostics Office and the front desk representative, Jabreea who has the kindest eyes and most lovely smile welcomed me to come forward to her window immediately, after explaining that I had a sick doggy in the car resting in the AC, she assured me she would let the others know that I may have to check on Tucker throughout the pre-op screening! Anesthesiologist Kate called me back promptly and patiently, professionally, and thoroughly went through all of my surgery history, medicine list, and all other pertinent information with grace and kindness. She didn't rush me and was open to any questions or concerns that I may have had. I felt very confident after leaving Kate and found Abby waiting to do my blood work and EKG. Abby was genuinely sweet and very determined to make the blood draw comfortable for me. MacKenzie watched over the procedure and was encouraging to Abby as she went about her tasks. I never felt the "poke" of the needle and the EKG was over in no time! Overall, it was just a smooth and relaxed experience and at no point did I feel rushed or nervous. As I left, Jabreea was there to say "goodbye and wished my Tucker a speedy recovery" which meant the world to me. This facility is a very warm and compassionate sanctuary, especially for others who are suffering through much more complicated scenarios than me and I feel that having warm and caring staff members like the ones that I encountered means the world to everyone who is uncertain and frightened about their future health issues. I'm thankful that Onslow Diagnostics has the best of the best to shepherd us through the ins and outs of pre-op procedures. It makes such a tremendous difference to feel the warmth and care radiating from this special, professional, and dedicated staff, I truly felt cared for. Thank you to everyone for everything you do! Please pass along my thanks to each member of the outstanding team at Onslow Diagnostics! Respectfully submitted, Sharon Smith
