Rakesh Reddy Likki, MD

“My philosophy is to care for the whole person, recognizing each patient’s unique needs, concerns and goals,” says Rakesh Reddy Likki, MD. “I believe that taking extra time to listen and explain medical information in clear, simple terms builds trust, strengthens the physician–patient relationship and helps patients feel informed, supported and confident in their care.”

Likki is an internal medicine physician at Willis Knighton South. He treats patients admitted to the hospital for acute medical conditions.

A native of Hyderabad, India, he earned a Bachelor of Medicine degree and a Bachelor of Surgery degree in 2021 at SVS Medical College at NTR University in Telangana, India. He also completed a residency in internal medicine in 2026 at Nuvance Health at Vassar Brothers Medical Center in Poughkeepsie, New York. He speaks English, Hindi and Telugu.
