Dr. Nikki

Nicole M. Johnson, M.D., DNBPAS

Dr. Nikki is a physician by training, a healer, and an advocate by design. For too long, “healthcare” has been in the hands of everyone outside of the exam room, but health and healing belong in the hands of the patients and their doctors and nurses. She seeks to educate and empower you to reclaim health for yourself, your family, and your patients. She wants to inspire you to prevent disease, maintain health, be informed about your choices, and advocate for policy that benefits you.
