John Johnston
1234 Huffman Mill Rd, 
Burlington, NC 

Overview

My path to becoming a doctor was nontraditional. After two years of college, I bought a family photography business and worked with my wife in the studio. Ten years later, the studio was asked to do the photography for a marketing campaign for the local hospital. Listening to the stories of patients and doctors in the campaign inspired me to pursue a career in medicine. My journey through medical school led me to pursue internal medicine as a specialty. I love that it gives me the ability to treat a wide range of medical problems and feel that it plays an important part in helping me to care for my patient’s overall health needs. My wife and I were high school sweethearts growing up in Georgia and have enjoyed living in North Carolina for many years. The people in this area have been good to us, and I wish to return that kindness through the great medical care.

His clinical expertise encompasses Glucocorticoid-Remediable Aldosteronism, Familial Hypertension, Hypertension, and Type 2 Diabetes (T2D).

After 20 years of clinical and research experience using low carbohydrate, ketogenic diets, I am continually amazed at how health can be improved by just changing the food that someone eats. I use an approach that is simple and effective, and evidence-based. Medical conditions, like type 2 diabetes, obesity, hypertension, GERD, fatty liver, and PCOS, can all be improved or even reversed through food. I am specialized in internal Medicine and obesity medicine, and I am the author of the books End Your Carb Confusion, The New Atkins for a New You, Keto Clarity, and Cholesterol Clarity. Dr. Westman is highly rated in 13 conditions, according to our data. His clinical expertise encompasses Alzheimer's Disease, Dementia, Parkinson's Disease, Movement Disorders, and Thrombectomy. Dr. Westman is board certified in American Board Of Internal Med, Internal Medicine.
