Jacksonville, FL (PRWEB) September 18, 2017 -- Lakeview Health, a leader in the treatment of substance use disorders, is pleased to announce Gregory Drummond has joined the organization as the executive director of their new facility in The Woodlands, TX. Drummond has more than 23 years of experience in health care administration in behavioral health facilities.

He will be vital in helping to provide resources that address their needs.”
Drummond will be responsible for overseeing all operating functions of Lakeview Health at The Woodlands.

He will plan and manage the center’s addiction services, which will incorporate the supervision of the staff and the development and maintenance of high quality treatment programs.
“I am excited to build and grow Lakeview Health in the Houston area,” said Drummond. “There are few options for people suffering from substance use and mental health disorders in Montgomery County and this center will help to fill that void. I look forward to introducing Lakeview Health and their successful treatment programs to the community.”
Drummond earned his master’s degree in business and health administration from the University of Phoenix, his master of social work from the University of Houston and his bachelor’s degree in psychology from Texas State University.
