Dylan Graetz

UConn School of Medicine, Class of 2013


After growing up in Milford, CT, I moved to rural Vermont to attend Middlebury College. I majored in English, but always knew that I was interested in health care. Throughout college, I shadowed doctors and volunteered with children. These experiences taught me about poverty outside of an urban setting, and I quickly learned that there are underserved communities everywhere. Upon graduating in 2008, I moved to San Francisco and worked for Lyon-Martin, an LGBT clinic dedicated to serving women and transgender people of all economic backgrounds. I learned about a different kind of diversity and experienced the satisfaction that comes from helping people who have been otherwise overlooked or turned away. I have always been interested in interdisciplinary work and strongly believe that no profession exists as an island. Through the UST, I will share my own perspectives and learn from those of other professionals. By working together, we will be able to provide more comprehensive health care to those in need.
