"His death devastated this community of healers who were so profoundly moved by his presence -- a brilliant blend of wisdom, skill, kindness, and generosity," his nomination said.

Santosh Krishnan, M.D., a thoracic surgeon at Aurora St. Luke's Medical Center, is known for his dedication to patients. One patient's daughter said, "After my dad's surgery, he listened carefully to us and took all the time we needed to answer our questions.

Jeffery Jordan, M.D., is associate program director for Aurora's internal medicine residency program at Aurora Sinai Medical Center.
