Trisha’s guest today is Dr. Jonathan Johnson, a private practice physician based out of Washington, D.C. He is a wound care doctor who owns and operates two private practices: Comprehensive Wound Care Services and Capital Aesthetic and Laser Center. We walk through his journey from medical school to private practice and why he owns the property where he operates his practices out of—in the Foggy Bottom area of Washington, D.C. He shares with us the changes he has made to his practice to adapt to his patients’ needs, as well as a strategy to grow in the future, based on where healthcare is heading. Finally, we discuss the value he places on educating others on wound care to achieve the best outcome!
