Bio

Molly Wecker, MD, MPH, MS (she/her/hers) joined DFMCH in 2025 as a resident in the Baraboo Rural Training Track. Raised in a large, working-class family in Wisconsin, Wecker’s path to medicine took what she calls “the scenic route.” After earning degrees in biology and global medicine, she worked at Planned Parenthood in Texas, where she provided reproductive health education and clinical support in both English and Spanish. Those experiences, along with time spent volunteering in rural Nicaragua and studying abroad in Ecuador, shaped her understanding of social justice, health disparities, and the value of comprehensive, patient-centered care.

She brings to residency a strong foundation in public health, advocacy, and reproductive justice, with particular interest in serving underserved and Spanish-speaking communities. Her dedication to patient autonomy and equity is reflected in her work as a committee member for the Wisconsin Medical Society and as a co-leader of Medical Students for Choice.

Outside of medicine, Wecker is an avid triathlete who has completed over 25 races. She enjoys swimming, biking, hiking year-round, animal welfare, and being an aunt to her nieces and nephew.
