Dr. Andrew Johnston, D.C.
Doctor of Chiropractic | Auto Accident & Personal Injury Specialist | 7+ Years in Practice
Background
Dr. Andrew Johnston was born and raised in the South, spending most of his childhood in the small town of Saint Cloud, Florida where the accents are thick, and the humidity is thicker. It was there Dr. Johnston found his passion for sports at a young age, when he was first introduced to baseball. His love for baseball continued through high school, where he also found a talent for soccer and golf.
He was recruited to play college ball but decided instead to expand his knowledge of the world by serving a two-year mission in Santiago, Chile, where he became fluent in Spanish. After returning, Dr. Johnston graduated from Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah with a degree in Exercise Science — and met and fell in love with his now wife at BYU
He then received his Doctorate of Chiropractic from Palmer College of Chiropractic West in San Jose, CA. After graduation, Dr. Johnston and his wife moved to Colorado, where he now resides in Erie with his wife, son, daughter, and their goldendoodle, Bowie.
Why Chiropractic?
Dr. Johnston's introduction to chiropractic care came after a serious baseball injury in high school. Fearful that the injury would end his season indefinitely, he turned to chiropractic care. After being adjusted and having Graston technique performed on his elbow, he was shocked — and thrilled — to be back on the field within the week.
That experience shaped everything. Dr. Johnston is motivated to help patients achieve their dreams, whether that means carrying their grandchildren, hiking their bucket-list trail, or competing at a high level. He focuses on finding and treating the root cause of a patient's problems rather than just chasing symptoms — and he values personalized, individualized care above all else.
Why Auto Accident Care?
Throughout his 7+ years in practice, Dr. Johnston has worked with hundreds of patients affected by motor vehicle accidents — patients dealing with post-traumatic headaches, whiplash, disc herniations, and nerve pain that genuinely disrupts their quality of life. That's what drives him. Getting people back to the lives they were meant to live.
Outside the Office
Dr. Johnston has found a passion for endurance sports, completing the 2025 Colfax Marathon, the 2025 Leadville Silver Rush 50-mile run, and the Frisco 50-mile Leadville Redemption race. When he's not running up a mountain, you can find him cycling, shooting, chasing his first hole-in-one on the golf course, fishing, or exploring the outdoors with his wife, two kids, and Bowie.
