ABOUT RALEIGH WELL

Built by families, for families

A family-owned, holistic wellness and longevity practice in Brier Creek, led by a care team that looks forward to serving and caring for your family.

What We Believe

We believe God created the human body with remarkable wisdom and a capacity for healing that humanity is only beginning to understand. A cut forms a scab; a broken bone can knit back together. Often, the body knows what to do—it may simply need support along the way.

We believe Jesus is the Master Healer. We help by seeking root causes and drawing on the best of nature and modern medicine, using the gentlest effective approaches to support your body’s God-given capacity to heal.

What we promise

To every family who walks through our door.

Advocacy

Everyone deserves a care team that advocates for them.

Time

Good care takes time, so our visits are never rushed.

Respect

Your family, your decisions.

Integrity

We promise to always do what we believe is best for our patients.

Meet the Team

Jenny and Drew Anderson with their three children

Jenny and Drew Anderson

OWNERS

Drew played at Ohio State before the Cincinnati Reds drafted him in 2004, and he went on to spend seven seasons in professional baseball. After baseball he kept competing, reaching CrossFit Regionals twice as an individual and twice with a team. That career as an athlete became the foundation for his work as an entrepreneur. Today he owns DFX CrossFit, founded DiamondFit Performance, a sports performance center, and is a founding partner of PRO5 Baseball Academy, where he manages programs that train athletes every day.

Jenny holds a master’s degree in education and brings 15 years of experience in the technology industry and business leadership. She leads operations across all of their businesses, including Raleigh Well.

Drew and Jenny both lost their fathers too early, and that loss gave them a passion for creating spaces where our community can come together and take control of their health. Together they have built health and fitness businesses in Raleigh for more than 15 years. As believers, their heart is to give athletes a place to excel and the best opportunity and advantage to reach their goals, and they bring that same experience with training, recovery and care to Raleigh Well. They live in Raleigh with their three children.

Ben Johnson, FNP-C, with his wife and four children

John “Ben” Johnson

MSN, APRN, FNP-C

OWNER · FAMILY NURSE PRACTITIONER

Ben’s path to medicine started at home. He watched both his grandfather and his father struggle with their health, and his father passed away young. Those years are what drew him to medicine, and they are why he uses his talents to equip our community to live healthier lives, with the vitality to live to their fullest.

Ben is a board-certified family nurse practitioner. He earned his nursing degree from North Carolina Central University and his master’s from Simmons University, and spent nearly five years at UNC’s Jaycee Burn Center before practicing family medicine in Durham. He is trained in evidence-based medicine, and his interests include functional medicine, muscle-centric medicine, and preventing heart and metabolic disease.

Ben and his wife are raising their four children holistically, and he gives every family a place where they can come and get the care they deserve.

Mackenzie Baughman, RN, with her husband

Mackenzie Baughman

RN

OWNER · LEAD NURSE

Mackenzie has a big heart for caring for people of all ages. She earned her nursing degree from Clarion University of Pennsylvania and began her career caring for mothers and babies, first in maternal-child health in Erie, Pennsylvania, and then in the NICU at Duke University Hospital.

Her passion for wellness eventually led her outside the hospital and into integrative and functional medicine, where she could help people stay well from a preventative standpoint. Today she leads our nursing care, from lab draws and IV therapy to the check-ins that keep patients on track, and she brings that same heart for holistic wellness to every patient, from little ones to grandparents.

Dr. Micah Craig, MD, medical director of Raleigh Well

Dr. Micah Craig

Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) Internal Medicine Residency

MEDICAL DIRECTOR

Dr. Craig is board certified in internal medicine and serves as Raleigh Well’s medical director, guiding our clinical standards and protocols alongside Ben. His interest in medicine began as a child, walking hospital halls beside his father, who was also a physician.

He earned a master’s degree in biochemistry before medical school and completed his internal medicine residency in Denver. Caring for patients in the ICU during the COVID-19 pandemic drew him toward preventive and regenerative medicine, and today his focus includes longevity, metabolic health, and peptide therapy.

We built the primary care practice we could not find when our kids were little.

When our children were young, we wanted a doctor’s office where we could ask questions and make decisions as partners with our provider. After we declined the recommended vaccine schedule for one of our children, we were dismissed from our pediatrician’s practice. There was no conversation and no room for questions.

We knew we were not the only family who wanted thoughtful, holistic care without judgment, so we built it. Raleigh Well is a place where every family can get the care they deserve.
