Dr John is a true Blessing! My niece was diagnosed by a renowned Cardiologist with Pulmonary Hypertension. The 1st Pulmonologist she was referred to, was debating the Cardiologist findings, did not put her on any medications, she was very, very ill!! After a few days, we either found Dr John with Google or was referred to Him- it's been over 7 years now, I can't remember the exact routine we found him in. God's GRACE & Dr Johns understanding of the Illness saved her life! His staff is Awesome (Kristen) all the Nurses are hands on, caring and genuinely concerned! I could type for days and not completely cover how being under his care improved my Nieces Life. Being young, if she got behind in keeping her Dr appointments or medication refills not done timely, the staff reached out to Family on file to check on her. Thank YOU all for the Awesome work that you do!! Donna

I am so happy with the care I receive at this office. I have gone to other clinics who dont seem to care about my care and treat me as a number. At Dr Johns office I truly feel like I am cared about as a patient.

Cannot believe he touts himself as critical care physician. Not affiliated with any hospital in Little Rock. Could not identify pneumonia? Ever heard of x-rays.

Poor diagnostician. Did not take time to assess patient or do any tests to find issue. After 3 visits patient was admitted to hospital with congestive heart failure and severe pneumonia. Dr. John said it was just age. How about assessing a patient appropriately????

My husband has received the best care from both the doctor and his staff. They always work above and beyond to make sure my husband is seen or given his prescription. I highly recommend him and words cannot describe how thankful I am of his care for those who suffer breathing.
