Robert (Bob) Rakosi, MD is a distinguished surgeon with board certifications in both
General Surgery and Surgical Critical Care. He honed his expertise through a
two-year AAST-accredited fellowship in Acute Care Surgery, completed at the UNLV
Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine at UMC in Las Vegas in 2024. Following this,
Dr. Rakosi joined Southern Nevada Surgery Specialists to continue to provide care
in the local Las Vegas area.
Dr. Rakosi earned his medical degree from Wright State University Boonshoft
School of Medicine in 2013. He then undertook general surgery residency at Keesler
Medical Center, Keesler AFB, MS, where he trained to become an active-duty
Air Force general surgeon. His subsequent assignment at RAF Lakenheath in
England involved caring for the local Air Force community and supporting various
operations across Europe and Africa as part of the Ground Surgical Team. Dr. Rakosi
also held the position of medical director for the general surgery department and
collaborated with British surgeons and trauma teams in NHS settings, including
Royal London Hospital. He then finished his Air Force commitment at Keesler AFB,
this time working as a teaching attending with the general surgery residency.
Upon completing his military service, Dr. Rakosi specialized in Surgical Critical Care
and Trauma Surgery through an ACS fellowship at the UMC Trauma Center in
Las Vegas. There, he received the Nevada COT Research Award and served as a
track-side trauma physician at the inaugural Las Vegas F1 Grand Prix. Dr. Rakosi is
dedicated to advancing trauma care in the rapidly developing Henderson area and
remains committed to delivering exceptional care to its residents.
