Summary

This week we’re returning to the Executive C-Suite this time from a Physician’s perspective with our guest Dr. Ronald Chapman, the Vice President of Medicine of Northern Health. We talk about his early commitment to a medical administrative career track, what a VP of Medicine does, his 13-year longevity in the role and what it takes to steer a large healthcare organization on a course towards higher quality care. We also touch on the benefits and challenges of living and working in rural communities and, if given his time again, why he wouldn’t consider any other job in the world.
