His career has included work with physician groups, hospital service lines, referral development, and team performance. Most recently, he served as Director of Marketing at Southeastern Spine in Chattanooga, Tennessee, where he supported patient growth and the development of the referral network until April 2026.

Brady was born in Sarasota, Florida, on April 26, 1988. He spent much of his early life near Siesta Key and Sarasota Bay, where he developed an interest in fishing and outdoor activity. He learned saltwater fishing first and later became interested in freshwater fishing, including bass fishing and fly fishing. A trip to the Sierra Nevada helped expand his interest in trout fishing.
He attended Pine View School for the Gifted and served as Class President in 2004. He graduated in 2006 and later enrolled at the University of Florida. In 2010, he earned a Bachelor of Science in Health Education and Behavior. During his time at the university, he held leadership roles in student organizations, including his fraternity, Student Government Productions, and Florida Blue Key.
He continued his education at the University of Florida’s College of Public Health and Health Professions, where he earned a Master of Health Administration in 2012. While completing the program, he served as Treasurer of the Health Administration Student Association. His graduate education helped prepare him for leadership roles in healthcare management, operations, and service improvement.
His career began through an administrative fellowship at a medical center in West Palm Beach, Florida. In this position, he worked on executive projects and supported departments connected to patient experience, communication, and customer service. This role gave him early experience with hospital leadership and daily healthcare operations.
In 2013, Brady earned his Lean/Six Sigma Black Belt certification after returning to Sarasota. He led a process improvement project at a local hospital, where he helped simplify workflows and improve efficiency. This experience supported his growing interest in practical improvement methods and team-based problem solving.
Later that year, he moved to Chattanooga, Tennessee, and joined a healthcare organization’s performance excellence team. He worked on improvement projects across several facilities, including efforts related to surgical services, charge capture, and patient flow. His work helped teams improve coordination and strengthen operational processes.
In 2016, Brady became a Practice Manager with a physician services group in Snellville, Georgia. He was responsible for several practices, including neurosurgery, pulmonology, endocrinology, and primary care. His duties included daily operations, financial management, staffing, provider support, and workflow improvement.
In 2019, his leadership development continued when he was selected for an internal leadership academy. The program helped him strengthen his approach to communication, planning, and team management.
Brady Beitlich contributed to several important results during his eight years in physician practice management. He helped oversee the remodel and launch of a neurosurgery outpatient practice in Chattanooga. The project supported growth in specialty services connected to a local medical center. Under his management, the practice exceeded EBITDA goals and reached about $3.6 million in annual net charges.
He also worked with pulmonology and endocrinology practices to improve coding, billing, documentation, and provider workflows. These efforts helped increase productivity and reimbursement. The service lines he managed reached about $2.9 million in combined annual revenue.
Team development was another important part of his work. He improved communication, clarified staff responsibilities, and helped align team goals with organizational needs. These steps helped raise employee engagement scores from the 76th percentile to the 93rd percentile in one year. During the same period, voluntary staff turnover dropped to zero.
In November 2024, he joined Southeastern Spine in Chattanooga as Director of Marketing. In this role, he focused on referral growth, patient outreach, and market development. He worked with local and regional partners to support stronger referral relationships and improve the practice’s presence in the healthcare community.
He also helped manage the marketing budget and develop plans to increase new-patient referrals and visits. His work included developing marketing materials, social media content, presentations, and outreach efforts. These efforts enhanced the practice’s visibility and strengthened its connections with referring providers and patients.
He has continued to stay involved in healthcare leadership through professional organizations and education. He was a founding member and Secretary of the Greater Gwinnett Medical Group Management Association from 2018 to 2021. Brady is also a member of the American College of Healthcare Executives.
His service has extended beyond his professional work. During college, he volunteered with a healthcare-related family support organization. More recently, he has helped prepare and serve meals for people experiencing homelessness through a Chattanooga ministry.
Brady Beitlich enjoys outdoor activities and staying active outside of work. He spends time kayaking, paddleboarding, hiking, and playing tennis, often in the Chattanooga area. He also enjoys gardening, interior design, and floral arrangement. These hobbies give him time for creativity, movement, and balance away from his healthcare career.
