Vitruvian Health

Vitruvian Health

Vitruvian Health, led by President and CEO Jeff Myers, anchors northwest Georgia's healthcare infrastructure through the operation of Hamilton Medical Center and a constellation of supporting assets. The enterprise traces its roots to the legacy of Hamilton Health Care System, with governance ties to the Whitfield Healthcare Foundation — whose board chairman, W. Scott Sellers, provides institutional continuity. The organization operates as a non-profit regional health holding entity rather than a traditional grant-making foundation, generating revenue through hospital services and monetizing its real estate footprint. Its investment posture blends direct operations with hard-asset ownership. The portfolio spans acute-care hospital real estate, a dedicated cancer institute, a pediatric center in the Anna Shaw Children's Institute, and income-producing properties including the Bradley Wellness Center in Cleveland, Tennessee, and a senior-housing complex in Dalton. Vitruvian also holds an equity stake in a medical supply cooperative, giving it exposure to supply-chain economics. Clinical collaboration with the Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University extends its strategic reach into oncology research. Governance flows through a network of affiliated boards — including Hamilton Health Care System's board, chaired by Lamar Lyle, and the Whitfield Healthcare Foundation — rather than a standalone investment committee. The entity participates in regional healthcare advocacy through membership in the Georgia Alliance of Community Hospitals and the Georgia Hospital Association. Its two-campus geographic footprint, covering Dalton, Georgia, and Bradley County, Tennessee, defines a tight service area where it functions as an economic anchor. Vitruvian Health's structural differentiator lies in its hybrid form: a non-profit regional health system that also functions as a real estate owner, private-market investor, and community-development entity through residential holdings such as the Royal Oak Community. This operating-company model places it closer in structure to an integrated delivery network with a proprietary investment portfolio than to a traditional healthcare foundation.
