PHMG continues on its path to become a high-performing, physician-led medical group. While our Medical Group Leadership Team undergoes changes, this commitment remains steadfast.
I want to review some recent transitions:
1. Now that our Epic Ambulatory rollout is largely complete, Michael Geist, MD has transitioned from Epic Physician Champion to take the formal role of Medical Director of Clinical Informatics for PHMG. As such, he joins MGLT as a voting member.
2. We have been searching for a Medical Director of Specialty Care these past few months. I'm pleased Scott Foster, MD has accepted this position and joins PHMG at the end of June. His proven leadership and experience at Providence Health & Services and with Providence Medical Group will be a valuable addition to MGLT and the PHMG Executive Team.
3. Karen Sharpe, MD, accepted a position as Administrative Director of Medical Informatics at Stanford. She steps down as Medical Director of Primary Care in July.
4. Larry Neville, MD, VP for the Columbia Network and CMO for PeaceHealth St. John Medical Center, will leave PHMG at the end of September. He plans to join The Oregon Clinic as a full-time practicing neurologist later this year.
We wish Dr. Sharpe and Dr. Neville success in these new opportunities, and we'll miss their contributions and camaraderie. Looking ahead, we're excited for Dr. Foster's arrival and I'm confident he and Dr. Geist will immediately provide effective leadership and drive to MGLT and PHMG. We'll look to fill the remaining leadership positions once they are open.
