A renowned healthcare leader, Entwistle has a storied career of driving transformative health innovations at academic medical centers and leading them to achieve national recognition for patient care quality. At Stanford Health Care, Entwistle spearheaded the completion of the new state-of-the-art Stanford Hospital, which opened to patients in fall 2019 and provided a critical component of Stanford Medicine’s COVID-19 response.
