Dr. Dragan was raised in Connecticut, and trained in New York and San Francisco before settling in Colorado. Dr. Dragan hails from a strong medical tradition; she is a fourth-generation physician, with the first female physician in her family graduating from medical school in 1917.

 

    Prior to founding Artisan MD,  Dr. Dragan worked at an oculofacial plastic surgery practice in Boulder County. Here, she earned a reputation as an exceptionally skilled and caring surgeon, sought after by both patients and physician colleagues. ​After 12 years, Dr. Dragan founded Artisan MD Eyelid & Facial Plastic Surgery in order to provide a uniquely welcoming and patient-focused environment for eyelid and facial plastic surgery.

 

    Dr. Dragan is one of only a handful of oculofacial plastic surgeons, experts in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery (as well as non-surgical aesthetic treatments for the eyes and face) who practices in Colorado.
 

"My approach to medicine, and facial aesthetics, is grounded in collaboration with my patients.  It's delightful to get to know my patients, and empower them by providing a scientific, evidence-based perspective about their issue.  Patients then feel confident making decisions  about their care, and this is the type of physician-patient partnership  that provides truly individualized care for each patient. ​
