Frederick Johnson, Jr., MD, earned his Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry from Ouachita Baptist University, and his medical degree from the University of Arkansas for Medical Services. He completed his residency in Diagnostic Radiology at the University of Arkansas for Medical Services and completed his fellowship in Vascular and Interventional Radiology at the University of Illinois at Peoria. His interest in radiology began in childhood while tagging along with his “other” mother (i.e. stepmother) as she worked as an x-ray tech and local radiology department supervisor in his hometown of Hope, AR. He often stayed the night in the radiology department while his other mother was on call and walked to school from directly the radiology department.
