After 30 years as a national leader in medicine, and 45 years serving the company, Cedars-Sinai President and CEO Dr. Thomas Priselac is set to retire in October. He will be succeeded by a fellow veteran of the medical industry. Following a nationwide search, Cedars-Sinai has named Dr. Peter Slavin the next president and CEO of both the medical center and the company’s health system. He previously led the medical team at Massachusetts General Hospital (Mass General), one of the largest hospitals in the United States, as president from 2003-2021. He looks forward to leading the team at Cedars-Sinai with a focus on equity and community.
“I am humbled to follow in Tom Priselac’s footsteps,” said Slavin in a press release. “He has been one of my heroes as I’ve watched Cedars-Sinai’s progress over the years from 2,700 miles away. It is an incredible honor to join Cedars-Sinai and to do my part to build on the organization’s growth and success.”
