I admire the steadfast approach and continued advocacy for the best end-of-life care,” Weil says. “My values are closely aligned with those of the organization, ensuring the best for patients, families and employees. I look forward to leading the team in California and continuing to pursue the programmatic expansion and innovation that have been hallmarks of VITAS for more than four decades."
While operations and quality compliance leadership define the last two decades of Weil’s career, his approach to the industry is rooted in hands-on care and formal education in physical therapy.

Most recently, he served as division vice president of operations for Rehab Without Walls NeuroSolutions, part of BrightSpring Health Services, where he was responsible for more than 50 locations across 20 states and the province of Ontario, Canada, including 20-plus de novo and acquired businesses.
He earned a Master of Science in physical therapy from Virginia Commonwealth University – Medical College of Virginia. This included three years of undergraduate science studies and three years of graduate studies focused on research, anatomy, biomechanics and the business of healthcare.
