In his new leadership role, Dr. Dodd will be responsible for developing the company's clinical care delivery roadmap. In partnership with ConcertoHealth COO Chrissie Cooper, Dr. Dodd will implement differentiated treatment models for patients across a broad chronic illness spectrum that will improve outcomes and the patient experience. Dr. Dodd will oversee the clinical and field-based care teams in both Michigan and Washington markets, with a focus on facilitating exceptional team-based and integrated primary care.
"Dr. Dodd has committed his career to serving vulnerable, complex patients who need care the most, and whose access to care may be further exacerbated by behavioral health or social determinants of health, such as poverty and housing insecurity," said ConcertoHealth COO Chrissie Cooper.

Dr. Dodd joined ConcertoHealth in 2016 as Regional Medical Director and oversaw the Washington market, while also serving as a physician, seeing patients weekly at the ConcertoHealth Lakewood (Wash.) Care Center. He has more than a decade of experience in medicine and public health, caring for vulnerable patient populations, including his work in some of world's most challenging settings, including India, Mozambique and Nicaragua. Dr. Dodd is a founding member and current president of the board of directors of Maravilla Health, an organization that supports community-based groups and public health systems in countries with limited resources. He also serves as a faculty member in the Department of Global Health at the University of Washington, where he teaches student health professionals. Click here to read a full bio.
