It's All About the Relationship...

We have many loyal patients and celebrate that loyalty. We enjoy visiting with them, hearing about their lives, children, and jobs. We celebrate their joys and mourn their losses. We pride ourselves that joining our patient list is more than going to the dentist. It is more like visiting an old friend. More than a few patients brag that they were one of my first patients when I was a new dental graduate. I am grateful that they trusted me then and have continued to allow me to serve their dental needs. Those loyal patients have referred many of their friends and helped us to grow our business.
All businesses need to continue to add new customers. Our business is no different. We work very hard to continue to develop deep and trusting relationships with new patients. Of course, relationships rely on chemistry and if the chemistry isn't right, the relationship can't blossom. As I mentioned, we cherish our referrals. With a referral, the trust that we have built with our patient is transferred at least to a degree with a positive referral. Trust is important when your dental health is being discussed. This is especially important when dental work is expensive. Our patients know when I recommend dental restorations, it is truly necessary.

We have also welcomed patients who chose us from their dental insurance list , a Google search, FaceBook posting, and Tweets. I can empathize with the anxiety they must be feeling when they enter our office. A benefit of using a small office like mine ensures that you will see me every time that you visit. Chances are that you will also see the same dental hygienist. Debbie, my wife, works with me and is the voice on the phone most of the time. The bottom line is that you know what to expect. There is very little turn over in staff. We hope our employees are as happy with us as our patients are.
We hope that we can help to alleviate your dental anxiety, answer your questions, and help you to look forward to your next visit. Or, maybe just not dread it too much! Regardless of how our patients find us, we celebrate the opportunity to make and develop relationships!

What does 150 pounds of candy look like?

We want to thank our patients, neighbors, friends, and even a few strangers to helping to make our first annual "Halloween Candy Buy Back" campaign a tremendous success. We shipped $150 pounds of candy to some very dedicated soldiers. Operation Gratitude will send most of the candy that we collected as part of their Care Packages. One special box will go to Jordan Johnson, a local Alpharetta young man stationed in Afghanistan. His brother is a dear friend of our son.

So, what does 150 pounds of candy look like? It fills 14 flat rate boxes. Those boxes stacked up were taller than Dr Johnson. They filled Debbie's car. Every bag delivered to our office was brought by someone wearing a huge smile. We had bags left by our office door, home door, and even in our home mailbox. Our entire family and staff really enjoyed the opportunity to see our community unite to share smiles with the men and women who are separated from their families and serving our country. We are so proud and excited to be able to share a smile or two from home. The moral of this story is that a small act of kindness like donating your candy can make many days brighter for so many.

150 pounds of candy looks like warm hearts and more smiles than we could measure! Thanks again!

Debbie and Brian Johnson

Don't let a toothache ruin your day!

Have you ever started your day with a smile, then your feet start to hurt because of new or comfortable shoes? Or begin to enjoy a Sunday when you get a toothache? Both of these scenarios will ruin your day and prevent you from thinking of anything else!
I can't help you with the shoe dilemma, but if Dr Johnson has recommended some dental work and you've been putting it off, I can help with that!
From simple fillings, to crowns, it is always best to treat before there is pain. Call today to schedule your next appointment!

Do You Twitter Your Google?

Do you Twitter your Google? FaceBook your tweets? Flickr your blog? If your are not sure if this is gibberish or not, you are in the same boat that Brian and I were in a very short time ago. As it turns out, the Internet offers a wide variety of opportunity to every business and/service. Here is a list of the social media arenas we are participating in and how we plan to use them.

FaceBook- a great communication tool. Several patients have used it to send message to us regarding tooth aches, questions about dental insurance, appointment changes, etc. It is also an easy and convenient way for your to "show" or "like " our practice to your friends. If you are not already a fan, please join!

Twitter- this is really just a marketing tool. I am happy to follow you , or have you follow us. Feel free to retweet us and we'll do the same for you! Our user name is BrianJohnsonDMD

LinkedIn-connects Dr. Johnson to you in a professional networking arena.

Blogger- we are using our blog to bring interested dental topics to your attention. Feel free to comment or even request topics.

YouTube- this is newest addition to our arsenal of social media. We will post patient testimonials, patient education clips, and new patient welcome clips.



The goal is to link as many "media" as possible. So, I'll post a YouTube video on FB. Feel free to comment on FB or on YouTube...get it? Many businesses are paying social media marketing firms to manage their efforts. They do a great job. Unfortunately, they look a little too shiny.

We are doing our own.. so it will look a little more "homemade". We like it that way! You would know if we weren't real... and would tell us. So, tell us what you think, either way. We can take it. Just know that are learning every day. So watch for our Tweets, FBs posts, blog entries, and videos!It is a crazy world we live in! Life is good!
