Novant Health has named Zack Landry president and chief operating officer of Novant Health Matthews Medical Center. In his new role, Landry will lead overall hospital operations and continue building the legacy of remarkable care provided to Matthews, south Charlotte and Union County.
Among his initial priorities will be opening the new critical care tower, which will expand services for the rapidly growing community. He will also collaborate and innovate with community partners to meet the unique needs of the diverse population of Matthews and the surrounding area.
Rooted in the Charlotte community, Landry has represented Novant Health for more than six years. Most recently, he served as the system administrative executive of the Novant Health Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute, where he led strategic growth and operational performance. He also was an administrator at Lafayette General Health, now part of Ochsner Health, in Louisiana.
"I am confident Matthews Medical Center will continue to thrive under Zack’s strategic leadership as he partners with clinical leaders, patients and their families to provide specialized and remarkable health care experience,” said Saad Ehtisham, senior vice president, Novant Health, and president of Novant Health Presbyterian Medical Center and the greater Charlotte region. “Our team members are dedicated to meeting the unique needs of the neighbors they serve. I am excited to see how Zack’s approach to leadership and community building will advance their work.”
Landry has led acute and ambulatory operations for over a decade. Across his many leadership positions, he has been responsible for professional support services and clinical service line operations at hospitals, clinics and ambulatory surgery centers.
"I am excited to expand on what Matthews Medical Center is already known for: A place that provides not only compassionate care – but also expert, specialized services to meet their personalized needs,” Landry said. “I look forward to deepening relationships between our clinicians, team members, patients and community partners as we continue building this remarkable future together.”
Landry earned a bachelor’s degree in mass communication and a Master of Business Administration from Louisiana State University.
