Heilpern: From NYC to the Elm City.
A former leader at New York-Presbyterian is headed to New Haven to serve as the next president of Yale New Haven Hospital.
Yale New Haven Health (YNHH) has appointed Dr. Katherine Heilpern (pictured above) to the position overseeing the system’s flagship hospital beginning on March 11.
“After an extensive search, Dr. Heilpern was selected due in part to her prior experience as both a health system executive and academic chair at highly respected health systems,” YNHH wrote in a Thursday press release.
Heilpern previously worked as the Chief of the Office of Provider Professionalism at the New York-Presbyterian Hospital.
