ALUMNI NEWS: David Deemer ’21
David Deemer ’21 received the 2024 Resident Advocacy Award, which is voted on by residents and/or faculty at the University of Wisconsin. The Resident Advocacy Award goes to the resident who has made significant contributions to the institution and/or community by advocating for structural change to promote health equity and/or improve patient health outcomes. In advocacy, he submitted written testimony in favor of a bill in Wisconsin to put Albuterol inhalers in school medical kits. This bill was signed by Governor Tony Evers and Deemer was one of the individuals invited to attend the signing (see photo right). He said, “It was gratifying to see a bill made into law and to know I helped in the process.”
