A Note from Our Founder

Joni jacket.jpeg

My name is Dr. Joni Collins DMS, PA-C, CAC (formerly Joni Ricketts) and I am the Founder and Owner of Twelve Twenty Eight Mobile Medical Wellness. I am a mother, a teacher, a Doctor of Medical Science, and a Physician Assistant that created a Wellness Center for people with or without insurance to have access to affordable medical care and aesthetics.

Over the past decade, I have witnessed first-hand the importance of the continual overlap of spiritual, mental, and physical connection. I have also personally witnessed the importance of social interaction, human touch, and love. I was on bed rest for 8 months with my twin daughters and it truly made me appreciate the gift of service and interaction with others. We are honored to serve you and create a unique wellness experience. At Twelve Twenty Eight we educate and empower others to feel their best.  

For the past 14 years, I have been blessed to mentor under some of the most selfless and brilliant physicians in the country. With my Doctor of Medical Science and board certification as a Physician Assistant, I have been able to learn under many different scopes of practice. I have practiced in Neonatology, Internal Medicine, Hospitalist/Trauma, Interventional Cardiology/ Electrophysiology, Reproductive Endocrinology (with a focus in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome), Facial Plastics Head and Neck Surgery, Dermatology, Psychology, and Aesthetic and Regenerative Medicine. 

When I am not busy as a DMS/PAC or creating memories with my beautiful daughters, I am traveling and training practices as a Certified Aesthetic Consultant. I was formerly the national trainer for AIAM led by Dr. Kian Karimi and Dr. Anil Rajani, and now I have my own training company, plus I am on the teaching faculty of Boston Biolife. We currently work with amazing brands like Cosmofrance, Novathreads, ezPRF, plus we teach many “off- label” procedures for companies. I also enjoy teaching the business of aesthetics as I have mentored under many successful and well-known businessmen and women.

We offer a large variety of treatments, beyond what’s listed on our online menu of aesthetic services. We encourage you to schedule a one-on-one medical consult for customized recommendations. We encourage you to always invest in your skin to maintain your investment in procedures. My favorite procedure is the 1228 Protocol because I have seen it change lives. The 1228 Protocol uses autologous stem cell aka PRF (platelet rich fibrin) in combination with collagen induction therapy and self-neutralizing peels that include boosters.

At Twelve Twenty Eight Wellness, we do not simply “band-aid” chronic medical conditions. We offer a 360-degree customized  approach, and treat the patient as a person and prevent disease states. We see the body as a whole and treat it as so. We educate, empower, and serve you. 

It is because of my broad scope of training and clinical practice that I am best equipped to serve you. To me, the biggest blessing is to know that I used my skill set to serve others. I hope one day to look at my beautiful daughters and know that I created a legacy for them...Twelve Twenty Eight is a vessel for that legacy.
