LAKEPORT, Calif. – Sutter Lakeside Hospital has welcomed a new chief administrative officer.
Dan Peterson, MHA, joined the hospital this week.
Peterson comes from the Sutter Santa Rosa Surgery and Endoscopy Center, where he served as administrator for four and a half years.
He succeeds Siri Nelson, who led the hospital for nearly eight years before leaving to take the chief executive officer’s position at South Meadows Medical Center in Reno earlier this month.
Peterson, who grew up in rural Michigan, is happy to return to his small town roots.
“I look forward to raising my family in a place with a strong sense of community,” said Peterson. “I devote most of my free time to my family, and they’re thrilled to be moving to a place with a lake, mountains and the forest.”
Peterson has a decade of experience in health care administration. His father’s career as a physician inspired Peterson to pursue the health care field.
“To me, health care is the most impactful industry,” said Peterson. “I find it gratifying to positively influence such an important aspect of people’s lives.”
He added, “Sutter Lakeside has a great team in place. I’m excited to continue improving health care in Lake County.”
