Dakota Brooker, MD

MD: Medical College of Wisconsin – Green Bay
BS: University of Wisconsin – La Crosse
Dakota was born and raised in Appleton, WI. She received her undergraduate degree in biology at the University of Wisconsin La Crosse and had the privilege of running cross country and track-and-field (5K and 10K events) during her time at La Crosse. Dakota has been interested in medicine for as long as she can remember; in third grade she proudly proclaimed that when she grew up, she wanted to be a doctor and a mom. She was fascinated by science and enjoyed learning anatomy and physiology when she finally was eligible for that course in college. Dakota decided to pursue medical training at the Medical College of Wisconsin in Green Bay and was able to begin her training where she would like to eventually practice family medicine. Early in medical training, she had the opportunity to volunteer with “Girls On the Run” in De Pere and learned how impactful community connections can be for members to see their medical professionals outside of the office and involved in the community. As a family physician, Dakota wants to be involved in her community just like the family physician she trained with during medical school.
When she is not working, Dakota enjoys spending with her family, including her husband and two children, and drinking coffee. They love the farmer’s market, taking walks, playing at local parks, and swimming at the Y. She tries to find time to continue running for enjoyment and exercise and spending time outdoors or having a game night with friends and a giant charcuterie board she created.
Dakota was drawn to the Fox Valley Family Medicine Residency because of their community-based approach to teaching residents. The faculty are supportive yet encourage the appropriate amount of independence to foster learning and medical decision making. Mosaic stands out for their full-spectrum training that will prepare trainees to practice medicine anywhere they choose. Dakota plans to utilize her training in rural Wisconsin.

Nicole Cunanan, MD
MD: American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine
BS: University of Mary Hardin-Baylor
Nicole grew up in the military town of Killeen, Texas. She received her undergraduate degree in Cell Biology from the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor. Inspired by her sister’s role as a Family Nurse Practitioner, Nicole started working in healthcare as a Microbiology Lab Medical Technologist. During this time, she also volunteered at a free community clinic where her interest in Family Medicine began. She loved the “behind the scenes” work she did in the lab but found herself always wanting to learn more about the patients and yearned for an opportunity to build relationships with them in person. With this, she made her first move away from home to the country of Sint Maarten to attend the American University of the Caribbean for medical school. Throughout her clinical rotations, her passion for Family Medicine grew as she found herself loving the ability to care for patients of all ages & backgrounds whilst building long-lasting meaningful relationships with them.
When not at work, Nicole enjoys spending time with her husband and two corgis, playing disc golf, watching food competition series (& then cooking to pretend she is a part of those series), and staying active outdoors and at the gym.
Nicole was initially drawn to the Fox Valley Family Medicine Residency because of the inviting and good-natured vibes of the residents and faculty, as well as the opportunities for full-scope training in a supportive learning environment while still being challenged to grow as a professional. Within the specialty, Nicole has interests in women’s health, integrative medicine, and geriatrics/palliative care.
