Ryan Kirvan

JDHead of Legal

About

We are here to help our teams move forward with clarity and confidence, providing legal and real estate guidance that supports growth while maintaining strong standards. 

Across the organization, we navigate complex real estate projects and legal matters, simplifying complexity to enable forward progress focused on the needs of our business and our hospitals.  

My legal career began at Stikeman Elliott LLP, where I specialized in mergers and acquisitions and capital markets. From there, I moved into healthcare as Vice President and General Counsel at Lifemark Health Group, followed by legal leadership roles within NVA in both Canada and the U.S., supporting general practice and specialty organizations. 

A practical, measured approach shapes how I support teams, helping them move our business forward with clarity, confidence and integrity.
