About
Dr. Anna G. Mirer is a family physician and the founder of Presence Primary Care in Milwaukee. She earned her Master of Public Health in Epidemiology and Biostatistics at UC Berkeley, then completed an MD-PhD at UW-Madison, earning her doctorate in Epidemiology. Her residency training in Family Medicine introduced her early to opioid use disorder treatment. Her residency clinic was one of the few in the rural community offering medication-assisted treatment, and roughly half its patients originally sought care for opioid use.
Dr. Mirer holds clinical interests in reproductive health, gender-affirming care, size-neutral medicine, mental health, opioid use disorder treatment, and primary care for neurodivergent patients. She speaks Spanish and brings trauma-informed principles into every aspect of clinic design and patient interaction. Born in rural upstate New York and raised in New York City, she also taught Head Start in New Mexico before pursuing medicine. Outside the clinic, she gravitates toward speculative fiction, musicals, and dogs, and describes herself as a formidable pub trivia competitor.
