Dr Yvette Johnson
“My hope is to help women have a comfortable and functional prenatal and postpartum period. I would love to see children begin life with optimal nervous system function and free of residual effects of birth trauma. I hope to be a resource to families while respecting their choices. This profession is a large part of my life and this little gem of a practice of mine makes me so happy. I love meeting everyone, getting to know you and being available to help and answer your questions. I love the texts, I love the photos, I love watching your families grow, meeting your extended families and hearing about your plans. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your healthcare and doing what I absolutely love! ”
