Background

About Ryan Vanderwerff

I’ve led healthcare operations teams for over two decades. My teams were called upon to do what other teams could not do. Whether we revolutionized the patient experience to top decile, turned around physician engagement to top tier, optimized operations to efficient expense benchmarks, or elevated productivity to enterprise targets; my teams always kept and continue to keep the mission at the center, the strategy at the core, and the culture in top health. Healthcare can be such a tough environment. Yet, when talented leaders kept the structure simple, the objectives clear, the path well thought out, and allow the frontline caregivers to lead with the ideas and action to move… we win! This is what energizes me everyday. I love to be active with my family, friends, and community. You will find my crew on the lake in the summer, at the mountains in the winter, and at Rice-Eccles in the fall. Go Utes!
