FORT MYERS — 21st Century Oncology Holdings Inc., one of the largest global providers of integrated cancer care services nationwide, named Kimberly Commins-Tzoumakas CEO.
Commins-Tzoumakas had been interim CEO since January at 21st Century, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy last May, when it aimed to reduce the company's long-term net debt by more than $500 million. The company’s board and ownership group, including funds managed by Beach Point Capital and J.P. Morgan, among other groups, chose Commins-Tzoumakas after extensive national search process, according to a statement.
Heidrick and Struggles, which is also leading the company's search for a CFO, led the CEO search.
“H&S provided the board with outstanding candidates for this role," says board member and former Cedars-Sinai Medical Network Services CEO Thomas Gordon in a statement. "Following an extensive vetting process and review of these candidates, the Board unanimously selected Kim to serve in this role due to her leadership skills and the confidence our physicians and employees have in her abilities."
Prior to this role, Commins-Tzoumakas has more than 20 years of experience working with complex health care firms in both nonprofit and for-profit entities.
"The last few months have been challenging but exciting as we develop a leadership team and vision to lead us into the future,” Commins-Tzoumakas says in the statement. “Our physicians are world class and the ability to work side-by-side with them as we transform this company is an honor.
21st Century operates 172 treatment centers, including 136 centers in 17 U.S. states and 36 centers in seven countries in Latin America.
