Dr. Johnson was raised in Newport News, VA.  He then went to James Madison University and graduated with a degree in Chemistry in 1983. At that time, he was accepted to the Medical College of Virginia for Dental School.  In four years, he earned his Doctor in Dental Surgery in 1987.

After 6 years of living in Richmond for school and in practice, Greg really wanted to return to the Harrisonburg area that he fell in love with while attending JMU.  In 1988, he started a private practice called SmileMakers and worked there for over 30 years.  After doing many short-term dental mission trips, he and his wife, Stacey, decided to move down to Patagonia, Chile and focus full-time on the language, culture and mission work.  

Now, Dr. Greg returns to life and dentistry in the US.  With his many years of continuing education, he is proficient in all aspects of dentistry including orthodontic, TMD, implants, root canals and many other surgeries.  In his spare time Greg enjoys tennis, cycling, photography, traveling and of course helping others less fortunate.
