About Sara McCleary

Recruiting Clinical Leaders at Optum, I leverage my healthcare and business background to source, attract, and hire qualified physician leaders for various leadership and executive roles across Optum. With over 20 years of experience in the healthcare recruiting field, I have successfully filled multiple positions at Mercy, SunBridge Healthcare, and St. John\'s Regional Medical Center, working and leading with diverse teams and stakeholders. I have developed strong skills in leadership, recruiting, communication, negotiation, relationship building, and data analysis, and I am passionate about connecting physicians with opportunities that match their interests, goals, and values. I am always eager to learn new trends and best practices in the healthcare industry, and to contribute to Optum\'s mission of improving health outcomes and delivering quality care.
