Lindsey Johnson, PA-C
My specialties:
- Female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery
Professional interests:
- Incontinence
- Pelvic organ prolapse
- Pelvic floor disorders
Practice philosophy: Ultimately, to improve quality of life and deliver medical care with compassion. It is important to me that I build strong relationships with my patients to understand their treatment desires, so that we can formulate a plan with shared decision making and medical guidance.
If you weren't a health care provider, what would you be? A project manager or wilderness guide.
What is something you have learned from your patients? Everyone expresses their concerns and needs differently. My four years in emergency medicine taught me to pay attention to the whole individual and to ensure them that their safety and comfort are my priorities.
What is the best thing you've done for your health or the best health advice you've received? Stay active! Its so easy to lose strength and so very hard to find it again. Our health at 60+ years starts with a strong foundation in our 20-30s. (And its never too late to build new routines!)
What are you most proud of? My family (husband and 2 daughters) and my PA career.
What are a few of your personal achievements? Several summers working in the rocky mountain wilderness, RAGBRAI x2, and raising my young family.
