229<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The National Board of Osteopathic Medical Examiners is pleased to announce that Kevin C. O’Connor, DO, has been selected to serve as its next President and Chief Executive Officer following an extensive national search.</p>
230</div>
231</div>
232<p class="wp-block-paragraph"> </p>
233<p class="wp-block-paragraph">His appointment reflects the Board’s confidence in his distinguished record of executive leadership, deep commitment to public trust and patient safety, and demonstrated ability to advance mission-driven organizations through periods of complexity, transformation, and innovation. Dr. O’Connor will join the NBOME as President and CEO-elect on September 1, 2026, allowing time for a smooth and thoughtful leadership transition. He will be installed as President and CEO at the Annual Board of Directors meeting in December 2026.</p>
234<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Dr. O’Connor brings more than three decades of leadership experience across federal service, military medicine, academic medicine, and health care operations. His career has been defined by service to mission-focused institutions, stewardship of multidisciplinary teams, and a sustained commitment to standards, accountability, and trust.</p>
235<p class="wp-block-paragraph">From 2021 to 2025, Dr. O’Connor served as Assistant to the President and 16th Physician to the President of the United States. Prior to that appointment, he served for eight years as Physician to the Vice President and conducted White House medical operations for more than 14 years across three Administrations. These roles required exceptional judgment, discretion, resilience, communication, and leadership in highly complex environments. <a href="https://nbome-my.sharepoint.com/personal/jsandella_nbome_org/_layouts/15/Doc.aspx?sourcedoc=%7BFB7AA1BE-A1F3-44EA-8E7A-8CA3872EE08C%7D&amp;file=2026%20KCO%20announcement%20public.docx&amp;action=default&amp;mobileredirect=true"></a></p>
236<p class="wp-block-paragraph">His military service further underscores his capacity to lead with clarity, courage, and accountability. Dr. O’Connor served 22 years on active duty in the United States Army Medical Corps, retiring as a Colonel and Master Flight Surgeon.

303<p>The NBOME works tirelessly to identify biases, clarify information, and educate on osteopathic distinctiveness and the COMLEX-USA credential. NBOME has joined efforts with  <a href="https://www.nbome.org/connection/">fellow osteopathic organizations</a> to increase awareness and acceptance of DO credentials for all students, residents, and physicians. They conduct advocacy efforts through engagement, outreach, and connection, which have yielded very positive outcomes. The record-setting match rate of 93.2 percent for DO graduates during the 2026 NRMP Main Re
303sidency Match is a testament to the recognized value of osteopathic distinction in healthcare. </p>
304<p>The NBOME advocates for a holistic review of applications for undergraduate and graduate medical education programs, and encourages <a href="https://www.nbome.org/rtdol/navigating-gme/rpd-toolbox/">training directors</a> and other recruitment personnel to evaluate all applicants based on their unique experiences, attributes, and competencies.</p>
