ANGELA MARCHANT

Angela Marchant, DO, IBCLC (she/her) became a physician to be a healer. Becoming an osteopath healed her. She is honored to witness the wisdom of the body with her patients. Angela was born and raised in Milwaukee, WI. As a student in Milwaukee Public Schools (Rufus King Represent!) her passion and life‑long commitment to social justice began. She earned a bachelor's degree from Brandeis University in Women's and Gender Studies and Public Health and her Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree from AT Still University School of Osteopathic Medicine in Arizona. In college she spent a semester studying health and development in Kenya. In her time in Madison prior to medical school, Angela volunteered with Groundwork, a local racial‑justice collective, and community organizations working for justice in housing, addiction recovery and the prison industrial system. She extended medical school to complete a year‑long pre‑doctoral teaching fellowship, expanding her skills as a teacher and learner. Since completion of training, Angela has practiced family medicine including obstetrics at a federally qualified health center in Madison, Wisconsin. Her areas of interest include integrative medicine, breastfeeding medicine, LGBTQ medicine including gender‑affirming care, addiction medicine and traditional osteopathy, particularly osteopathy for newborns. She is grateful to expand her practice providing osteopathic treatment to a wider range of patients in the Four Lakes region. In her free time Angela enjoys spending time with her two young children in their garden, playing Spider‑Man and chess, fishing, wrestling, exploring and photographing remnant prairies, yoga, gardening and being outdoors with family and friends.
