Akeira Johnson, MD
Beyond The Stethoscopes
SERVICES: Comprehensive family medicine education with a special focus on women’s health across all life stages.
UNIQUE APPROACH: My approach blends evidence-based medical expertise with mindfulness and personalized medicine to support prevention and wellness as a lifestyle.
UNLIKE CONVENTIONAL MODELS that treat symptoms in isolation, I focus on whole-person care—integrating physical, emotional and lifestyle factors. My dual experience in primary care and specialty services allows me to prevent and manage chronic disease through sustainable changes that improve daily function and long-term wellness.
CLIENTS CAN EXPECT: You’ll be seen, heard and educated to take agency over your health. I offer collaborative wellness education and personalized health plans aligned with your functional goals. Sessions are unrushed, practical and deeply informative—empowering you to live well with clarity and confidence.
I WAS DRAWN TO WOMEN’S HEALTH after witnessing how often women’s concerns were dismissed or fragmented across medical systems. I became committed to being the kind of doctor who validates, informs and advocates for women—especially around sexual health and midlife transitions.
WORKING WITH WOMEN HAS TAUGHT ME that health journeys are not linear—they’re personal, nuanced and deeply individual. I’ve learned that meaningful healing combines medical precision with lived experience, and that community support among women elevates all of our wellness paths.
I HELP WOMEN: interpret their body’s signals and uncover overlooked patterns in their health through deep listening and thoughtful testing. I turn vague or dismissed symptoms into clear, actionable steps, especially around sexual health, hormonal transitions, and functionality concerns.
HOW DO YOU LEAD BY EXAMPLE? I embody the wellness strategies I teach—nutrition, mindfulness, and boundaries are part of my everyday life. I share my own health journey transparently, modeling that self-care is essential, not selfish, in sustaining service to others.
GET IN TOUCH: I’m launching a new blog, newsletter and women’s health magazine! Natural Awakenings readers can receive a free, 30-minute, personalized lifestyle wellness plan—available to the first 10 that reach out and mention this feature.
