Wayne Anthony Johnson, MD
Lawton, OK

I believe that knowledgeable patients make the best decisions about their Orthopaedic care. That is why I take the extra time to listen to my patients and explain to them all of their treatment options--Nonoperative and Operative. Most of my patients never require surgical intervention. I utilize the state of the art medications and have them work with a skilled team of Physical and Occupational Therapist employing modalities and exercises to restore them back to their preinjury levels. When Surgery is the best option for my patients I utilize the least invasive and state of the art techniques to give them the very best results possible. Please feel free to contact me anytime if you or your loved ones are in need of quality orthopaedic care with a personal touch. I take care of my patients the way that I would take care of my own family. I am actively involved at Cameron University as a sports medicine team physician and an orthopaedic consultant at Lawton High School. I also am an Associate Clinical Professor at the S.W. Oklahoma University.
