Dawn Weets, ARNP

An Iowa native, Dawn grew up near Bernard and Cascade and now lives on a 40-acre hobby farm in southwest Wisconsin with sheep, horses, a donkey and other farm animals. When she's not caring for patients, you'll likely find her riding horses, enjoying live music, spending time with family and friends or soaking up summer by the pool.

Dawn brings a diverse background in cardiothoracic surgery, critical care, primary care and hospital medicine, giving her a well-rounded perspective as she cares for patients with heart conditions.

"Cardiology captivates me because it sits at the intersection of intellectual complexity, technical precision and profound human connection," Dawn said. "Heart disease is one of the most preventable and treatable conditions when addressed with expertise, and I'm passionate about helping patients achieve their best possible heart health."

She chose UnityPoint Health because of its commitment to improving the health of the communities it serves and looks forward to partnering with patients and families through every stage of their cardiac journey.
