Meet the Team
The On Purpose Chiropractic team is very friendly, and their goal is to provide comfort and all the information the patient needs.
Dana Johnson
Guided by compassion and efficiency. Dana Johnson brings care, precision and a personal touch to her role as Office Manager at On Purpose Chiropractic. With a Bachelor’s degree in Music Education from San Jose State University, she oversees clinic operations, including patient scheduling, records management, billing coordination and administrative support for the chiropractic team. Dana sees her job as more than just paperwork – she works to create an organized, welcoming environment where every patient feels well cared for from start to finish.
Outside the clinic, Dana thrives in the outdoors and around animals, fueling her energy and creativity. She also competes in dance, enjoys singing, and immerses herself in the arts. Having grown up between Los Angeles and Santa Rosa before moving to San Jose, she stayed active in sports and discovered chiropractic early on – experiences that inspired her to guide others in their wellness journeys through clinic management and patient support.
