About Dr. Johnson

Dr. Johnson was born and raised in Sergeant Bluff, Iowa which is just one hundred miles north of Omaha. She attended Sergeant Bluff-Luton Schools. After high school graduation, she went to Briar Cliff University in Sioux City, Iowa where she earned a Bachelor's degree in Biology. While at Briar Cliff University, she worked in the Admission's office as an assistant, tour guide, and after graduation a transfer counselor for a summer until she left for chiropractic school. She attended chiropractic school at Northwestern Health Sciences University in Bloomington, Minnesota. She graduated in November of 2007. In March of 2008, she married her high school sweetheart on their tenth anniversary. She now lives in Bellevue with her husband, Russ, and English bulldog puppy named Johnny.

Dr. Johnson chose chiropractic health care because of two people in her life, her grandmother and her chiropractor. Her maternal grandmother lived with her family when she was growing up and was ill very frequently for the last ten years of her life. She was in and out of hospitals and doctor's offices. She took multiple pills seven times a day. Dr. Johnson would occasionally take her to the appointments and when she was diagnosed with lung cancer would take her grandmother to radiation treatments. After many visits, Dr. Johnson became frustrated with the current medical system, but knew she wanted to do something in the medical field and help people. Then one day at her chiropractic appointment, it just clicked. Dr. Johnson enjoyed going to her chiropractor. The visits always felt more like seeing a friend and she always left with relief from her ailment. That is when she decided that chiropractic is the career that she wanted to pursue and immediate relief is what she wanted to offer her future patients and friends. While attending chiropractic school, Dr. Johnson realized that chiropractic helped more than just pain. She is very excited to have this opportunity to help the people of the Omaha area perform at their best and with as little pain as possible.
