Johanna Bergh is a physical therapist who specializes in geriatric outpatient care. She works with people age 65 and older on preventing falls, improving balance and gait, increasing strength and overall fitness, and enhancing all functional mobility so that they can be as physically safe and independent as possible. She has a particular focus on caring for older patients with neurological disorders, such as Parkinson's disease and stroke-related conditions, and also for patients with vestibular disorders (problems with the balance system controlled by inner ear structures), aiming to reduce their dizziness, improve their balance, and provide resources and education on managing their symptoms. She is passionate about helping older adults learn how to age gracefully and maintain their mobility.
Bergh earned her doctor of physical therapy degree through a joint program of San Francisco State University and UCSF.
