Holistic Direct Primary Care
Using Heart-Mind Medicine for Root-Cause Healing
Are you:
❀ Tired of quick-fix medication appointments that don’t truly heal?
❀ Frustrated by the lack of holistic, whole-person care in conventional medicine?
❀ Looking for a provider who actually listens and understands?
I get it—I’ve lived it.
❀ I lost my parents to the very prescriptions that were meant to help them.
❀ My sister was overmedicated, discharged without proper care—left worse off than when she started.
❀ I’ve seen loved ones gaslit, neglected, and failed by the healthcare system they trusted to care for them.
I've felt it in my own body. I’ve walked this path myself and know firsthand the toll it takes. I saw it not only in my own life but also in those around me. I saw it in the lives of my patients and watched them get sicker.
👉 Imagine stepping on a nail and going to the doctor. Instead of removing the nail, the doctor gives you pain medication. You come back a week later with a severe infection, so they add an antibiotic—but still don’t remove the nail. As time passes, the wound worsens, and eventually, your foot is amputated. The infection spreads. You become septic. You die. All because no one ever thought to take the nail out of your foot.
👉 This is how modern healthcare often works. We treat symptoms—pain, inflammation, anxiety, insomnia—but rarely do we look for the root cause.
Eventually, I realized that staying in that world—one that often prioritizes symptom management over true healing—wasn’t enough. True healing requires time, curiosity, and a willingness to look beyond surface-level solutions.
Hi, I’m Veronica Johnson, FNP-C, PMHNP-BC (Family Nurse Practitioner-Certified, Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner-Board Certified), a licensed medical provider specializing in root-cause healing. At White Oak Medicine, I have the freedom to do what conventional medicine doesn’t often hold space for—taking the time to truly understand your health concerns and address them at their source.
Through a holistic and functional medicine approach, I help people safely taper unnecessary medications and regulate their nervous system, allowing the body to restore health naturally. But healing isn’t just about the physical—it’s about uncovering what’s really beneath the surface.
I draw on my professional training, personal healing, and lived experience to provide whole-person care—supporting metabolic health, reducing inflammation, balancing the nervous system, and addressing the impact of chronic stress—moving beyond the “pill for every ill” mindset.
I know firsthand that real healing takes work. It’s not always the easiest path, but meaningful transformation doesn’t come from quick fixes. I’m committed to that work—for myself and for those I serve.

Polypharmacy—especially in older adults—has become the norm, leading to unnecessary side effects, worsening health, and dependence on more medications to counteract the effects of others. It’s shortening our lifespan and our quality of life.
If you've ever felt like you're just collecting prescriptions without getting healthier, you're not alone. I take the time to evaluate what’s working, what’s necessary, and what might be keeping you stuck or even making you worse—so you can regain control of your health and feel like yourself again.
At White Oak Medicine, we'll help you get to the root cause of your discomfort.
