Nomination Submission:
Dr. Svatek has merit for many of the listed criteria, however the one that hits home when I consider his role in my education is “Serves as a compassionate and generous role model”. As an educator, he champions his resident’s abilities and grooms their areas needing improvement in a way that empowers positive change. and learning opportunities. Compassion and generosity are evident in all of Dr. Svatek’s work with his patients and reflected in the words they have to say about him. I firmly believe that my future patients have benefited in a major way from the influence Dr. Svatek has had on me and my practice.
