At Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, Dr. Harrison oversaw all aspects of clinical and business operations and a 3,500-member staff. He has also served as chief medical operations officer for Cleveland Clinic. He completed his residency in pediatrics and pediatric critical care fellowship at the University of Utah School of Medicine in Salt Lake City.
Dr. Harrison succeeds Charles W. Sorenson, MD, who has retired. Dr. Sorenson will, however, serve as founding director of the Intermountain Healthcare Leadership Institute, which is slated to open in 2018.
“The state of Utah and its medical community have helped shape my life,” said Dr. Harrison in a statement. “To come full circle, returning to the health system where I trained as a medical resident and now being a part of Intermountain, is an incredible moment for me and my family.”
