    Dr. Johnstone was easy to talk to. She really listened when I spoke. She had read my chart and so it made the most of our time not having to re explain what I had previously been through. She has a calm confident manner.

    Im really grateful to have Dr. Johnstone as my doctor. She is extremely knowledgeable and has the best bedside manner of any doctor I have seen in the past 5 years. I didn't feel rushed, she was thorough in her explanations and quotes the data and studies. She was so validating of my feelings, respectful of where I am at in the process but also helped correct some misunderstandings about I had. I so appreciate hearing about the data and studies, and to not feel pressured to jump to more invasive treatments but to still get the info and her advice. She is top notch.

    I found Dr. Johnstone to be very insensitive and not optimistic. I am barely 39 and other doctors I have met with are optimistic and positive - stressing that I only need one good egg. By the end of the call this doctor suggested that I could look into an egg donation from someone in their 20s. I left the call crying and felt pity rather than optimism and care. The doctor explained the IVF process well - but I felt like I was being talked to as if I was 80 years old and wanting to have a baby.

    The genuine care that has been used to handle this entire situation is insurmountable. I can't thank Dr. Johnstone and her team enough for walking with us through this entire process.

    Dr. Erica Johnstone stands out as one of the finest doctors I've ever had. Her unparalleled bedside manner, combined with a personal clinical expertise and evidence-based approach, makes her my hero. I could also gather she is a great mentor to her medical team which says a lot. I'm confident that I received the best care under her guidance.
