Lyn Dobrunick to lead Providence Digestive Health Institute

Oregon Eastern Service Area

I want to share important information about the transition for Brad Geiger from his current role as the administrative leader for Providence Digestive Health Institute of Oregon to a new role as the executive director of Providence Medical Group Specialty Clinics in Oregon. 

Brad has served as the executive director of Providence Digestive Health Institute for Oregon since 2018, achieving significant successes in quality, patient satisfaction and growth across the institute. 

This new role in Providence Medical Group is an exciting opportunity for Brad and I wish him all the best. 

I have asked Lyn Dobrunick to serve as the executive leader for Providence Digestive Health Institute of Oregon with Brad’s departure, and she has agreed. Providence’s cancer and digestive health institutes have combined at the system and division levels. With Lyn taking on this added role, Oregon will have organizational alignment within the institutes, as well. 

Lyn’s background and experience make her well suited to continue the excellent work of the Providence Digestive Health Institute in Oregon. Lyn’s leadership role in digestive health will be in addition to her current duties as executive director for Providence Cancer Institute of Oregon. This change is effective March 26. 

Please join our digestive health medical directors, Chuck Douville, M.D., and Ken Flora, M.D., and me in congratulating Brad on his new role and thanking Lyn for taking on this additional accountability.
