Dr. Winkler’s journey into healthcare began as a childhood fascination with human biology at the tender age of twelve. But the sudden loss of his grandmother during college—and the compassion of the physician who cared for her during her last hours—taught him that optimizing the human experience is always the true purpose of medicine. This ignited his passion for palliative care as an indispensable part of good cancer care. 

Today, as a seasoned medical professional, he thrives on managing complex medical challenges while always prioritizing his patient’s life values. 

From a childhood dream to a lifelong commitment, Mitch’s path was always destined for the realm of medicine. What sets him apart is his innate ability to balance health challenges against the human experience. He champions honest risk/benefit assessments as an indispensable part of cancer care, ensuring a focus on patients’ quality of life.

Rooted in the Midwest, Mitch draws strength from the region’s grounded and straightforward spirit. For him, healthcare is not just a profession; it’s a compassionate journey transforming moments of despair into avenues of healing.
