SPOTLIGHT - Prashanth Patil, MD

What Peers Said
Dr. Patil is described as compassionate, empathetic, and an exceptional listener who brings genuine joy to his patients. He takes the time to understand each patient as a whole person and is deeply committed to improving their lives in meaningful ways. His strong bedside manner and ability to form authentic connections reflect how deeply he cares for his patients.

Future Plans
I plan to practice Primary Care potentially in Green Bay, WI. Looking forward to taking this summer to visit family and friends.

Greatest Experience
It has been a true pleasure to work with wonderful faculty, co-residents, students and staff who were all cooperative as a team and all educating each other. I feel being around this community and residency has taught me how to become a better physician. I have learned from being on several committees how to be a more effective leader. Having a residency in such a beautiful area was a tremendous stress reliever to walk through nature or paddleboard on Lake Superior. I feel blessed to be surrounded by the truly special and talented people that I have been able to work with.

Residents chose their own adventure at this physician wellness event—this group enjoyed a bike ride along the NTN South Trails to Morgan Falls and Carp River Falls along the Carp River and Carp Eh Diem trail. Between the calming natural surroundings and the benefits of low-impact exercise, it was a great way to recharge and boost overall wellness.

Dr. Robinson is known for being highly organized, knowledgeable, straightforward, and compassionate. Her kindness and authenticity allow her to easily build strong, lasting relationships with patients. She demonstrates confident leadership with both her care team and patients, advocates fiercely for those she serves, and meets patients where they are.

Greatest Residency Experiences
My greatest experience has been getting to work with so many intelligent and kind attendings and residents. I’ve had so many examples of exemplary physicians to learn from that have made me a better physician. My colleagues are some of the most empathetic and supportive people I have known and have made my residency experience positive and memorable in a way that would not have been possible without them.
