The Army had been her life until it turned into her enemy. A former combat medic reflects on the ultimate betrayal of giving her all in service and feeling abandoned in return.
Nicole Johnson
Nicole Johnson was born and raised in the great state of Texas and has always had a passion for service. From a young age, she knew that medicine and the myriad of challenges and rewards that can be gained through it was the path for her. From her first pet clinic as a child, through her service as an Army medic, and on to owning her own business focusing on point of injury care in the civilian environment, medicine and helping others has been the thread that ties her life together. Johnson uses her diverse experiences in trauma and emergency medicine to teach others about the medicine she is so passionate about. In her downtime, you can find her by the lake sitting in her Adirondack chair with a cold beer in her hand. Nicole is a 2019 War Horse fellow.
