OrthoVirginia names new CEO

OrthoVirginia, the commonwealth’s largest provider of orthopedic medicine, has a new CEO.

Dr. David S. Jevsevar became the practice’s top executive on May 16.

Jevsevar was most recently chair and regional vice president of orthopedics at Dartmouth Health in New Hampshire. He has more than 30 years of experience in clinical practice as an orthopedic surgeon.

“We conducted an exhaustive national search and Dave’s vast experiences separated him immediately,” Dr. Ben Kittredge, president of the board of directors, said in a statement. “His strengths are a unique blend of strategy, culture and orthopedic physician perspective. There is no doubt, at this point in OrthoVirginia growth, Dave is the person to propel OrthoVirginia toward our vision to set the standard of excellence for patient-centered, high-quality care. We are looking forward to having Dave join the OrthoVirginia team as our new CEO.”

Jevsevar is based in Richmond.

“OrthoVirginia is a recognized leader in musculoskeletal health with enthusiastic and dedicated physicians, associate providers, and staff providing care for its devoted patients,” Jevsevar said in a statement. “I’m incredibly honored to join the team at OrthoVirginia as we pursue our commitment to our mission of championing healthy, vibrant, active communities one person at a time ensuring that stronger starts here.”

OrthoVirginia has more than 100 doctors and more than 30 locations in Lynchburg, Northern Virginia, Richmond and Virginia Beach. A location in Ashburn is also expected to open in October. In 2021, three orthopedic, physical therapy and sports medicine practices in Arlington and Blacksburg became part of OrthoVirginia.
