Dr. Fredrickson was born in San Francisco and went to high school in Santa Rosa, CA before moving to the central coast for her undergraduate education. Wanting to experience life outside of California, she went to medical school and obtained her Master’s in Public Health in North Carolina, where she worked with organizations focusing on substance use and incarceration and studied how our communities shape our health.
However, she missed the west coast and thankfully matched in Seattle for residency. She trained at the University of Washington Family Medicine Residency’s primary clinic at Harborview and spent a few chilly winter weeks working with the rural residency in Chelan. She was inspired by her patients to get more training in OB and reproductive justice, so she completed the Swedish Family Medicine OB Fellowship with the goal of working in a smaller community setting.
Dr. Fredrickson loves taking care of families, helping people have healthy pregnancies, getting people back to the activities they love, and disrupting cycles of shame and stigma around substance use and mental health conditions.
In her spare time, she enjoys trail running and backpacking with her dog Charlie and husband Connor. Being close to the mountains and the water feels like home to her, and she’s happy to be serving the North Olympic Peninsula community.
