Meredith Sorensen, M.D.
A native Coloradan, Meredith passes for a real New Englander these days—she lives in Vermont, works in New Hampshire, goes to school in Massachusetts, and is proud to say she loved the Red Sox before they got good. Meredith first migrated eastward for college. She graduated from Washington and Lee University in 2002 with a chemistry major, which actually allowed her more time to take English and art history her senior year…it made sense at the time. Never quite the Southern belle, she headed north to attend Dartmouth Medical School in Hanover, New Hampshire. After finishing her M.D. in 2006, she couldn’t part with the frigid winters and ‘Brake for Moose’ road signs, so she stayed on at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center for her general surgery residency. Once she completed two years of residency, she decided she had not gone to enough school. So, she took time off to get a master’s degree in science and medical journalism from Boston University. She will graduate in December and dedicate six months to writing and cardiac surgery research before returning to residency’s sleep-deprived 80-hour-work-weeks next June. Meredith is going to be a surgeon when she grows up, but she hopes to continue writing on the side. In her spare time, Meredith loves hiking, skiing, fishing, reading, cooking, traveling, and hating the Yankees.
