Bio

Faith Anderson, MD (she/her/hers) joined DFMCH as a resident in 2024. For Faith, rural Wisconsin is home. She grew up in the small town of Spring Valley, WI. She earned her undergraduate degree in Biology from the University of Wisconsin – Madison. While in school, she took a class called “Women and Their Bodies in Health and Disease;” this course started her path toward a special interest in women’s health. After graduating from college, she worked as a CNA in a nursing home; this experience uncovered her love of geriatrics. She then earned her medical degree from the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health. As a student in the Wisconsin Academy for Rural Medicine (WARM), she completed her clinical training in rural areas around the state where she saw firsthand the importance of rural primary care. Faith is very passionate about increasing access to healthcare in rural areas. She is engaged with teaching the next generation of medical professionals that a career in rural medicine is joyful and sustainable. She also has special interests in women’s health and obstetrical care within family medicine. Outside of medicine, Faith enjoys camping, baking bread and sweet treats, gardening, and cross-stitch sewing.
