Meet Dr. Will Johnson, MD, FACS Board-Certified Bariatric and Vein Surgeon in Suwanee, GA

Dr. Will Johnson, MD, FACS is a board-certified bariatric and vein surgeon at Bodiatrics in Suwanee, GA, proudly serving patients from Johns Creek, Alpharetta, Duluth, Cumming and across Metro Atlanta. With more than 20 years of experience in weight management, Dr. Johnson pairs surgical precision with a whole-person, data-driven approach to lasting results.

Dr. Johnson is Duke-trained and board-certified by the American Board of Surgery. As a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS), he holds one of the most recognized distinctions in surgical practice. Those credentials reflect a career spent as a bariatric surgeon with one goal: helping patients reach and keep a healthier weight safely.

As a bariatric surgeon, Dr. Johnson performs the full range of modern weight loss procedures: gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, robotic bariatric surgery, single incision surgery with one hidden scar, and revision surgery for patients whose earlier operation did not deliver lasting results. Every procedure is minimally invasive, and every plan starts with the right operation for the patient rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

What sets his practice apart is the whole-person, data-driven method behind the surgery. Before any procedure, patients complete baseline testing such as lab work, a DEXA body composition scan and metabolic testing, so decisions rest on measured numbers instead of guesswork. After surgery, the same data guides nutrition, medication and follow-up, which is why Bodiatrics patients in Suwanee are supported long after the operation itself.

Alongside his bariatric practice, Dr. Johnson is a vein surgeon and serves as Medical Director of the Vein Center at Johns Creek, where he leads a full suite of minimally invasive vein treatments. Patients from Suwanee, Johns Creek and across Metro Atlanta see him for varicose veins, spider veins, venous reflux and the heavy, aching legs and swelling that come with them.

His techniques include sclerotherapy for spider and small varicose veins, Varithena foam treatment, VenaSeal adhesive closure with no heat and no compression stockings, and radiofrequency ablation with ClosureFast. Each is office-based, needs little or no downtime, and is chosen only after an ultrasound evaluation confirms which veins are causing the problem. That is the difference an experienced vein surgeon brings: treating the cause, not just the appearance.

Dr. Johnson believes real, lasting change comes from treating the whole person, not just a number on a scale. Over more than 20 years in weight management, he has seen that the patients who succeed are the ones who feel understood, supported, and guided by real data rather than judgment.

His approach is warm and honest. He takes time to explain the why behind every recommendation, whether that is a surgical option, a medical weight loss program, or a vein procedure, so patients can make confident, informed decisions. That same standard of care carries into his role as Medical Director of the Vein Center at Johns Creek, where minimally invasive treatment and clear communication go hand in hand.
