Pediatric Specialists of Virginia (PSV), a joint venture between Children’s National Medical Center and Falls Church-based Inova, has tapped William Judd as its chief operating officer. Judd was the regional vice president for the Maryland Operations of National Spine & Pain Centers, the nation’s largest interventional pain management practice.

In his new role, Judd will focus on guiding PSV through its next stage of development and growth. PSV is a physician group practice that was formed in 2013. The nonprofit, which launched with five specialties, has tripled in size over the last 18 months and plans to continue its growth in the next several years, including the expansion of a pediatric Ambulatory Surgery Center in Spring 2015.

Judd served as COO for Kimbrough Ambulatory Care Center & Regional Health System in Fort Meade, Md.; COO for DiLorenzo TRICARE Health Clinic-Pentagon in Arlington and senior health policy analyst in the Office of the Army Surgeon General in Falls Church.

He received a bachelor’s degree in political science from the University of New Hampshire in Durham, N.H., and an master’s degree in health-care administration from Baylor University in Waco, Texas.
