Debunking misconceptions, Dr. Johnson provides a roadmap for health and vitality in what can be truly golden years."Catherine CrierJournalist, former Judge and best-selling Author"Dr. Marina Johnson has been the personal physician for my wife, Susan and myself for the last nine years. I am 61 years old and Susan is 62. During this time, Dr. Johnson has provided us with a level of health care that can only be characterized as extraordinary. She takes the time to listen and explain and she does this in a manner that is clear and concise. She has tailored a health management program personalized for our individual needs and as a result, Susan and I are very healthy and vigorous for our age.I graduated from college with a degree in pre-med but chose to pursue the world of business. I have owned or co-owned several companies, including one that went public on the NYSE in 1996. I am an educated, health consumer and I research and learn about health issues that are affecting Susan and me. I have learned from the business world that true talent is rare. There are perhaps only 1% in any given field that are truly the best at what they do and Dr Johnson is part of this elite group.Dr Johnson's approach to menopause management has enabled Susan to enjoy a better quality of life and productivity. We both travel all over the world and have great energy.
