General Info

About Dr. Kolbe Dr. Robert Kolbe’s career in medicine began with him literally dispensing medication. As a new graduate of Purdue University’s School of Pharmacy, he spent one year behind the counter before deciding he wanted to go to medical school. After graduating from the Indiana University School of Medicine, he then completed his residency at the Memorial Hospital of South Bend Family Practice Residency Program. Through his decades of practice, Dr. Kolbe says he has learned humility from his patients. Serving patients in smaller communities including Bremen has helped him stay in his preferred environment. “I wanted to treat the whole person and wanted a more rural practice where I could provide primary care,” he says. Dr. Kolbe’s approach to practicing medicine is to listen to his patients’ stories and answer questions they have about themselves. “I look at the whole individual – emotional, physical and spiritual,” he says. Working at Beacon is a positive moment in his career. “I did residency at Memorial Hospital and I know and trust medical leadership there,” he says. “Beacon is associated with our local community hospital and has done well providing what our small town residents need, in a high quality manner.” In his own words… Who is or was the most influential people/role models in your life?
