DeTar Healthcare System has named Brett Maxfield as its new chief executive officer.

Maxfield was most recently chief operating officer and interim CEO of Longview Regional Medical Center in Longview, Texas, where he focused on expanding healthcare services in the community. Prior to that, he was the chief operating officer and interim chief executive officer at Merit Health-Biloxi (now Memorial Hospital Biloxi) in Biloxi, Mississippi.

The faculty and staff at Detar are ready for the leadership Maxwell will bring. “We are excited to welcome him to DeTar to support our talented team of providers, nurses and employees and continue to build on the momentum we have to help area residents access more care close to home,”  Dr. Mark Stevens, Chairman, DeTar Board of Trustees said.

Maxfield and his family are making the role official and moving to Victoria to be part of the community he will serve.

“From the opening of the cancer center to the family medicine residency program to the new partnership with Texas A & M, DeTar continues to advance the quality and availability of healthcare services, and I’m honored to have the opportunity to build on this success.”

Maxfield received his Bachelors of Business Administration from Texas Tech University and his MHA/MBA from the University of Houston Clear Lake.
