Southeast Health, located in Dothan, Alabama and serving patients in southeast Alabama, southwest Georgia, and the Florida Panhandle, is seeking an experienced physician executive to serve as the organization's next Chief Medical Officer (CMO).
The Southeast Health Medical Center earned a Five-Star distinction in "Forbes Top Hospitals 2026" and a LeapFrog "A" safety rating for Fall 2025. Southeast Health is a not-for-profit, regional referral community health system dedicated to improving the health and quality of life of those they serve. Through innovation and sustained performance, Southeast Health, since opening its doors in 1957, has achieved the reputation of providing exceptional diagnostic, clinical, surgical, and patient care services.
Southeast Health's flagship hospital is licensed for 420 beds, and the system has more than 3,000 employees. Their active medical staff of nearly 300 physicians represents virtually every medical specialty including, but not limited to, key service lines in cardiology, oncology, neuroscience, women's services, general surgery, and orthopedics.
As the senior physician executive, the CMO plays a critical role in the strategic growth and development of all clinical programs. The CMO uses evidence-based best practices to support and promote patient safety, continuous performance and quality improvement, risk management and efficient resource utilization. The CMO is a substantive contributor to creating relationships, systems, processes, and incentives that will move Southeast Health towards the goal of highest quality care in an environment that fosters physician, employee and patient engagement and satisfaction.
The CMO will also be on the board of the organization's ACO, the Southeast Health Statera Network. Qualified candidates will be an M.D. or D.O. with physician leadership experience in a sophisticated hospital or health system. This individual must be process driven and possess the ability to understand the big picture and make difficult decisions, while building strong physician relations to advocate for the medical staff.
We welcome and appreciate confidential inquiries, nominations, and requests for additional information. For additional questions, please contact the consultants supporting this search, Nelson Mann, FACHE, Holly Nandan, FACHE, and Brittany Amaral preferably via email at bamaral@wittkieffer.com.
