Dr. Murphy served at the helm of the clinic from 2001 to 2011. Prior to 2001, he was executive vice president and COO of Carilion Clinic. He helped Carilion transition from a system of hospitals to a physician-led clinic and helped establish the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine and Research Institute, also in Roanoke.

Johnson, in a statement.
