2026 Hope on the Green Golf Hosts Committee

Todd O’Brien, MD, MBA

Chair, Orthopedic Surgery, Salem Hospital | Director of Quality and Safety for the Mass General Brigham Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Community Division | Hope on the Green Co-Chair

“As a shoulder surgeon and golfer, I’ve learned that top performance is never an accident. It is the result of preparation, repetition, and teamwork.

The same is true in healthcare. When seconds matter, and lives are on the line, our caregivers must be ready. That’s why this year’s Hope on the Green tournament will support the expansion of our medical training and innovation programs, including the expansion of Salem Hospital’s Simulation Lab, to provide physicians, nurses, and care teams with advanced, hands-on training before they face real patient emergencies.

Your support is an investment in safer care, better outcomes, and the future of healthcare on the North Shore. I am honored to serve as a co-chair and invite you to join us for a memorable day on the course while helping ensure our community receives the exceptional care it deserves.”

Hope on the Green Co-Chair

“I believe one of the greatest assets a community can have is access to exceptional healthcare close to home. As a native of the North Shore, my family and I all rely on that care—for ourselves, our friends, and neighbors. Knowing outstanding physicians, nurses, and specialists are here when we need them provides invaluable peace of mind.

For generations of families who live on the North Shore, Salem Hospital has been there during life’s most important moments – delivering compassionate, high-quality care. Giving back has long been a priority for my family, and we are proud to support this year’s Hope on the Green tournament. By investing in our caregivers, we are helping ensure greater preparedness, better outcomes, and stronger healthcare for our community.

I hope you will join us for an exciting day of golf and camaraderie while making a meaningful investment in the future of healthcare for the families, friends, and neighbors who call the North Shore home. Together, we can help ensure exceptional care remains close to home for generations to come.”
