Paul E. Johnson Md's Online Review Report Card

He really messed my ear surgery up now I'm partially deaf in my right ear I lost my hearing after surgery definitely not recommended for anyone so I'm partially deaf in my right ear now

FBI, please stop this man before he destroys many other lives! He is a criminal in my opinion. He is destroying human beings for insurance money. He must not be allowed to operate on any human being. Please listen to me before more people are destroyed in the hands of this so-called “doctor.”

Just had reconstruction surgery due failed surgery I had with Dr. Johnson. The left side was collapsing so bad after deviated septum and sinus surgery, he took out WAY too much cartilage. As my new surgeon said, he completely “wrecked” my nose and took out all the support. When my new surgeon went in, he said it was way worse than what he had thought. I can say that I know I’m not the only one that Dr. Johnson has done this too. I had a 3+ hour revision trying to fix the mistakes Johnson did to my nose. In my reconstruction surgery, I had to have cartilage borrowed from my ribs and it was miserable. So sad Dr. Johnson still has his license. It is unfortunate that he is very “nice” doctor, however nice doesn’t fix bad surgeon. Wish he would be updated on better practice & “techniques” before he goes and operates on more patients.

This so-called “medical doctor” (Paul Johnson of Indiana University Health) has literally destroyed my life. Starting in the first months of 2021, I was misdiagnosed by this IU Health ENT “doctor,” went through two sinus surgeries by him and then a third one in Fall 2021—only to find he had made my condition much worse and left me with a permanent, disabling, chronic condition. Recent medical examinations by other specialists and an endoscopy indicate that what causes my chronic illness (choking, gagging in the throat) is the direct result of these improper surgeries, severe gastrointestinal problems, and a hiatal hernia. This makes it nearly impossible to lecture or speak at any length without coughing or literally gagging due to uncontrollable sinus drainage and stomach reflux. Would anyone want his/her students or colleagues to have to witness an unpredictable and embarrassing choking crisis while merely trying to teach or speak in public? I am now reliant on serious medications and medical routines, which help but do not prevent these gagging episodes. I am on aggressive dietary restrictions and can barely eat anything, and only in tiny amounts. A qualified medical doctor overseas wrote the following report on my case: “Our patient Kemal Silay was examined on 27 April 2022 with the complaints of obstruction and fullness sensation through his nasopharynx, throat and larynx. On his medical history, it was learned that he had nose and sinus surgery 2 times for this reasons. His CT scan at April 2020 before the whole surgeries was examined it was seen that he had a nasal septal deviation, minimal concha bullosa deformity on left side and minimal concha hypertrophy, there was not any sinus problems. The second CT scan was also seen which had been taken on July 2021, it was detected that nasal septal deviation was corrected but both lower turbinates on each side and also the left middle turbinate were nearly completely resected. On his physical examination, nasal passages were widely opened, there were residual minimal lower turbinates and especially on left side middle turbinate was over-resected and maxillary sinus ostium was widely opened. Also grade 3 acid reflux was detected on his larynx. The patient fully informed about the damage that there was not an opportunity of reverse surgery. He was also recommended to admit for an endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract. After the medical treatment he was seen as control appointment on 03 October 2022. with the treatment of desloratadine + montelucast treatment the backward drainage from nose to throat was a bit reduced. During this time a GIS endoscopy was done and he was diagnosed as hiatal hernia which was also determined as acid reflux. Nasal passages are wide but he has an “empty nose” syndrome because of the over resection of turbinates. Medical treatment is modified and sinus clearing solutions were given. The absence of lower turbinates is decreasing the breathing quality as well as the quality of life. The patient is informed about the situation in details.” The FBI is the primary agency for investigating health care fraud, for both federal and private insurance programs. Paul Johnson of Indiana University Health and the Indiana “Law Firms” seem to be in a criminal relationship but if you are just a simple citizen, you cannot possibly fight these people yourself! This kind of disgusting relationship can only be handled by the FBI properly and honestly on behalf of the American people!¬

Falling apart, I was hearing construction vehicles outside, hearing every word of the “next in line” separated by a bathtub curtain… I had never seen anything worse than that before in my life anywhere in the world. At least in the Soviet Union, these practices were completely free of charge but not in Johnson’s business. They are after millions of dollars as they manage to justify their fake surgeries at the expense of human life! What happened to the Hippocratic Oath (Ορκος) in the United States of America? After all this Hell, I tried to contact some law firms in Indiana. They listened to me, took notes, etc. but rejected my case at the end. It was very clear to me that in this state (Indiana), “lawyers” and “doctors” were working together for money. “Health care fraud is not a victimless crime. Health care fraud can be committed by medical providers, patients, and others who intentionally deceive the health care system to receive unlawful benefits or payments. The FBI is the primary agency for investigating health care fraud, for both federal and private insurance programs.” Paul Johnson of Indiana University Health and the Indiana “Law Firms” seem to be in a criminal relationship but if you are just a simple citizen, you cannot possibly fight these people yourself! This kind of disgusting relationship can only be handled by the FBI properly and honestly on behalf of the American people!¬

Showed up an hour before surgery for check in and went back to get ready for surgery and the nurse came up at 7:45 and said we are the first surgery for dr. Johnson at 8am and then we were informed by multiple staff that he is notorious for being late. He didn’t show up to work until 8:20!! My baby was so done at this point because he was so hungry! Everyone else in the building was on time ready to go but not dr. Jonson! I would have gone with another doctor if I known he would be late! Also after the surgery he didn’t even apologize for being late! He just came in and said man your son is mad! I said well he is hungry and hasn’t eaten since midnight. It’s just very disrespectful to the staff and all the patients. I highly recommend another doctor!

Had an appointment for 8:45am, showed up 15 minutes early registered and was placed in a room by 8:40am. We sat for over an hour waiting on the doctor. Come to find out, he hadn’t even made it to work yet. Apparently it isn’t unusual for him not to show up anywhere near on time.

Not sure about his knowledge or expertise.....I felt like I was herded out of the office with little or any information.....not very happy with visit

Dr Johnson is a wonderful man. Kind passionate caring.
