Since joining Charlottesville, Va.-based UVA Health in February 2020, Dr. Kent has overseen the acquisition and integration of three hospitals in Northern Virginia, including dozens of multispecialty clinics and a physician organization. In July, the health system acquired a minority interest in Riverside Health System in Newport News, Va.
