About Andrew Johnson, MD

Andrew Kelly Johnson, MD, a neurosurgeon at Endeavor Health, specializes in the treatment of brain and spine tumors, head and neck cancers, and traumatic injuries to the brain and spine. He also manages headache and myofascial pain syndromes and offers minimally invasive spine surgery when appropriate. Dr. Johnson prioritizes the least invasive, most effective treatment options, often nonsurgical, and tailors each plan to maximize patient outcomes and recovery.

Care philosophy

I aim to offer the least invasive, most effective treatment – and above all, I focus on achieving the best possible outcome for every patient.Spine patients may benefit from therapy or pain management, and brain conditions can sometimes be treated with stereotactic radiation. When surgery is needed, my goal is to treat the problem effectively while using the smallest approach possible to support a better recovery.
