Mr. Flattery leads Carilion New River Valley Medical Center, a 146-bed acute care community hospital offering modern operating rooms, advanced imaging and robotic surgery, and a level 3 trauma center, as well as Carilion Clinic Saint Albans Hospital for psychiatry and behavioral medicine. He joined Carilion in 2007 and oversees the health system’s team across the rural New River Valley of southwest Virginia, including primary care sites that give rural residents local access to specialists. This winter, the American Nurses Credentialing Center awarded the hospital its “Pathway to Excellence” designation for the second time, one of just 281 hospitals nationwide and six in Virginia to hold the four-year designation. The hospital also earned a “high performing” status for treating kidney failure in U.S. News & World Report‘s 2025-26 “Best Hospital” rankings. Under Mr. Flattery, Carilion Children’s outpatient specialty care nearly doubled in size with the addition of child development and pediatric neurology services, and in March the medical center launched a 24/7 obstetric hospitalist program. Mr. Flattery works closely with academic partners Virginia Tech, Radford University and the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine, and the medical center provides specialty sports medicine care to Virginia Tech and Radford athletes.
