About Alex Johnson, DO
I am passionate about primary care in helping to prevent problems for patients before they start. I like to think of myself as a patient's teammate on their journey to better health and wellness. When I’m not working I enjoy spending time outdoors; physical activity; sports such as golf, basketball and volleyball; and relaxing with my two pugs.
