Mr. Methven joins St. Mary’s from the Saratoga Hospital/Albany Med Health System where he served for nearly 20 years, most recently as executive vice president.

"I look forward to partnering with our talented team of professionals, medical staff, and board of volunteers to progress the organization forward and ensure that the city of Amsterdam and surrounding communities have access to affordable and quality healthcare for years to come.”
