Why Johnson PT Consulting?
I am passionate about empowering PTs to make an indelible difference in the health care community as a vital part of the solution to the opioid crisis. I believe every PT possesses a gift to give in every season of their PT practice from the new graduate to the veteran PT. I love to help PTs discover their next steps in practice transitions to greatness, as they continue to mature as a whole person in both work and family life.
