Dan Johnson, MSN, APRN-BC, cares for patients of all ages at Lake Regional Clinic - Lebanon.
As a nurse practitioner, Johnson has advanced education and clinical training. He can diagnose and manage acute illnesses and chronic conditions. He partners with patients to prevent disease and promote health.
A native of Lebanon, Missouri, Johnson takes great satisfaction in caring for people in his hometown.
“Being from Lebanon, I want to take care of Lebanon,” he said.
Johnson began his health care career serving as an ICU nurse. He decided to go back to school to become a nurse practitioner after shadowing a nurse practitioner in family medicine.
“I realized my personality fit the nurse practitioner role,” he said. “You grow relationships in family medicine, and that’s what I wanted to do. My patient relationships are the most important thing to me.”
