Snow, president and CEO of TeamHealth. “Through his visionary leadership and unwavering commitment to excellence, he helped build a solid foundation for TeamHealth and the more than 19,000 clinicians we are privileged to serve. We thank Dr. Massingale for his ongoing dedication and congratulate him on this well-deserved honor.”
