Dr. FAYE JOHNSON

At about the age of 5 my mother said I drew this picture and she wrote down what I told her at the bottom.

I was born and raised in Bismarck.  Graduated Bismarck High School in 1992 and went off to study biology at the University of North Dakota.  While at UND I visited the student health clinic several times for minor sniffles and sneezes.

Every time I walked out of there it seemed I was offered an antibiotic and birth control!  I became disillusioned with “health care.”  In my simple mind I became worried that I would be bored if all I had to offer people were

antibiotics.  I realize that this is a simplistic view of medicine, but hey I was 20 years old!     During my senior year my sister took me to see a chiropractor who did kinesiology.  I was fascinated by his knowledge of my body by just pressing on my arm, but I knew I was not meant to be a chiropractor.  After completing my biology pre-health degree I moved out to Oregon to be near my junior high sweetheart Aaron.  I worked at a ski area and learned to snowboard, but the desire to help others didn’t go away.

I turned to prayer and asked God to give me a sign of how he wanted to use me.  The sign came one year later while back in Bismarck for a friends’ wedding.  I wanted to go for a walk by the river but my car ended up at the library.  I walked inside, went down a row of books and grabbed one off the shelf.  I opened it and read a one paragraph description of homeopathy looked up and said “You’re close!”  Then turned the page and it was a one paragraph description of the principles of natural medicine.  I closed the book and my heart just soared!  Finally, a medicine I could believe in!!

I attended Bastyr University in Seattle, Washington graduating in the fall of 2003 with a License in Massage Therapy, a Master of Acupuncture, and a Doctorate in Natural Medicine.  I joined Dakota Natural Health Center in February of 2004 and worked there until December of 2017.  January 1st 2018 I moved to my current location and started Evergreen Natural Health Clinic.

I am happily married to my sweetheart Aaron and have 2 sons Elias and Aksel.  Our boys are both in hockey so we are on the go.  In my spare time I enjoy walking my dog Ridge, snowboarding, waterskiing, shooting sporting clays, and laughing with family and friends.

I love my job and feel so blessed.  My mission is to restore clients to optimal health and to have a great time along the way!
