Ambulatory Care Thought Leaders

Across his 15 years in healthcare, David has seen the evolution of delivery systems in both the hospital and ambulatory care settings from multiple perspectives.  He is the former Clinical Ethics Officer for a major U.S. health system, helped administer an NIH sponsored study of the implications of the Human Genome Project, studied healthcare practices as a student in Britain's National Health Service, managed clinical and non-clinical operations for a 350-bed tertiary care hospital, and planned and operated physician-lead outpatient facilities. David is an adjunct faculty member in the Nebraska Methodist College healthcare administration program and currently teaches a course on strategic management and health system planning through Johns Hopkins Medicine International at the University of Trinidad and Tobago. In his current role as Senior Healthcare Consultant at HDR, David hopes to help healthcare providers think differently about how they plan and deliver care.    

"Great design cannot be about the building alone. To be great, design must enhance changes in process, service, culture, technology and patient experience. Ultimately, it must transform the way healthcare is delivered."
