I believe in an interdisciplinary approach to pain, utilizing physiotherapy, pharmacotherapy, and interventional modalities to provide the best possible outcomes for patients with an evidence-based approach. I believe in a collaborative process between physicians and patients to develop a therapeutic plan that not only improves pain but also aids in restoring function. I specifically focus on neuromodulation, utilizing spinal cord and peripheral nerve stimulation to treat painful conditions.
I am a chronic and interventional pain management specialist. I came to St. Luke’s from the University of Pennsylvania Hospital, where I completed my pain management fellowship. I earned my medical degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and completed my anesthesiology residency at Duke University Hospital in Durham, North Carolina.
As a North Carolina native and Duke University alumni, I am a diehard “Cameron Crazie” and love cheering for my Blue Devils in every sport. I also enjoy running, hiking and cooking. Most importantly, I love spending time with my wife, the Jersey girl who brought me to the Northeast. I’m grateful to be a physician with St. Luke’s. Taking care of patients in the Lehigh Valley and the surrounding New Jersey area is a privilege.
“Dr. Savion Johnson has provided excellent medical care to bring immediate and long lasting relief for my back pain. He is very knowledgeable, professional and concerned. He is a great listener and takes time to explain things thoroughly.”
