Cleveland Clinic has appointed the former chair of its children’s hospital as its new chief medical operations officer.
Dr. Robert Wyllie, 61, steps into the role that was vacated when Dr. Marc Harrison was appointed last month the new CEO of the Clinic’s 360-bed Abu Dhabi hospital that’s projected to open late next year.
Wyllie’s role will include overseeing the 1,700 employees involved in operations in the clinical supply chain, Modern Healthcare reported. He’s a board-certified physician in pediatrics, pediatric gastroenterology and nutrition, and has been with the Clinic since 1981.
