Dr. Johnson has helped thousands of airline capitals, as well as both corporate and private pilots, with a wide variety of issues related to FAA medical certification. Many pilots, however, don’t prepare thoroughly enough before their exams, leading them to be denied their certification. The most common reason pilots are denied isn’t due to health reasons, but because of a failure to provide the necessary documentation.

Don’t just show up to your appointment unprepared — work with an FAA medical examiner beforehand to make sure you have everything you need taken care of. Dr. Johnson has the intimate, up-to-date understanding of the FAA’s requirements you need to take your FAA medical exam with confidence.
