John McRae, DNP, MPH, NP-C, known to his patients as Dr. John, is a board-certified nurse practitioner and the founder of Mountain Man Hair Restoration in Boise, Idaho. He specializes in modern hair restoration, helping men and women regain their confidence through natural-looking, personalized treatments.
Dr. John began performing hair restoration in 2017 and has since completed more than 300 follicular unit extraction (FUE) procedures, earning a reputation for precision, artistry, and compassion. His clinic provides a full spectrum of solutions—including FUE transplants, medical therapy, PRP/PRF treatments, and microneedling—to address every stage of hair loss. After years of leading a successful aesthetic and wellness practice at Mountain West Medical
Services, Dr. John launched Mountain Man Hair Restoration in 2025 as a dedicated space for hair restoration excellence. His philosophy is simple: treat every patient like family, take the time to understand their goals, and deliver results that look and feel completely natural. Dr. John holds bachelor’s degrees in biology and nursing from Boise State University, a master’s degree in public health from A.T. Still University, and a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from Idaho State University, where he was part of the university’s first graduating nurse practitioner doctorate class. He is a proud member of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine and has previously served as an adjunct professor at Idaho State University, mentoring the next generation of nurse practitioners. When he’s not in the clinic, you’ll find Dr. John outdoors—fly fishing, hiking, hunting, or spending time with his wife and three children. His passion for the outdoors and attention to detail carry over into his medical work, where precision and care define every patient experience.
