Dr. Hannah Johnk, D.P.M. always knew she wanted to do something meaningful, where she could be of services to others, when she grew up. She enjoyed science and learning about the human body throughout school and decided early in her childhood she wanted to be a doctor. In high school, Hannah broke her ankle and this is when she decided to go into podiatry and surgery. "Podiatry is such an enjoyable field because it offers diversity both clinically and surgically, and it also allows me to have great work/life balance," says Hannah.
When asked what she enjoys the most about working at Myrtue Medical Center she states, "I love caring for my neighbors. There is such a wonderful sense of community at this hospital. It is evident on a daily basis that each person working here at Myrtue cares deeply for our patients. I love being a part of that."
Outside of work, Hannah loves traveling, reading, baking, antiquing, playing volleyball, and chasing after her children. She is a native of Walnut, IA., where she now resides with her husband of 12 years, Ryne, and their three children; Ivy, Edith, and Millie.
