Penn State Health names Bradley Stevens vice president of ambulatory services
Penn State Health has appointed Bradley Stevens as vice president of ambulatory services. Stevens brings more than 13 years of experience partnering with operational leaders and clinical chairs to advance access, alignment and performance across ambulatory care networks.
In his new role, Stevens will help ensure that Penn State Health’s ambulatory strategy supports both the organization’s mission and long-term sustainability. As the health system transitions to a unified and integrated Penn State Health Medical Group, he will lead efforts to expand access and enhance the patient and provider experience across outpatient clinics and ambulatory locations.
“As the region’s only academic health system, Penn State Health is uniquely positioned to bring advanced expertise, innovation and resources to the communities we serve,” Stevens said. “Penn State Health has experienced tremendous growth over the past decade, and I look forward to building on that momentum by expanding access to high‑quality ambulatory care across central Pennsylvania. I am particularly energized by our upcoming transition to Epic as our standardized electronic health record and revenue management system, which will enhance collaboration and further strengthen the care experience.”
Stevens joins Penn State Health from Penn Medicine Lancaster General Hospital, where he most recently served as executive director and vice president of orthopaedics and neurosciences, a role he held for the past 10 years. Prior to that, he was regional director of ambulatory and primary care operations.
During his tenure at Penn Medicine, Stevens led initiatives to expand outpatient services, improve patient access and strengthen coordination across a diverse provider network. His work focused on aligning clinical operations with growth strategy while ensuring care delivery remained patient-centered and operationally efficient.
“Brad brings a strong emphasis on access and ambulatory operations that will be critical as we continue to evolve our care delivery model,” said Kyle Snyder, president and chief operating officer of Penn State Health. “He will focus on making it easier for patients to access care and ensuring our clinics have the resources needed to support physicians and advanced practice providers in delivering care efficiently, effectively and at the highest level of quality.”
Stevens succeeds Steve Speece, who retired from the vice president role in December 2025. Mike Westerberg, who had stepped in to cover the duties of vice president, remains senior director of ambulatory services.
Stevens earned a Bachelor of Science in biology from Millersville University and an MBA from Liberty University. His appointment marks a return, of sorts, to Penn State Health – as he served as a nuclear medicine technologist at St. Joseph Medical Center more than 20 years ago.
