“We reached out to Renee and Tom when our top customer informed us of an upcoming evaluation meeting. We met with Renee to provide a quick overview of our company and the “Score Card” from our customer. With very little guidance, Renee and Tom provided a presentation listing the key objectives our customer was looking for. Their services provided our company with a high score and strengthened our customer relationship. ”

“Renee is the most inspirational and natural leader. She has a way of drawing you in to see the vision and then encouraging people to execute. She also has a way of setting a positive cultural tone for staff. I proudly reported to Renee as her CFO for 7 years. I found myself constantly striving to do my best for her and the organization. Yet it didn’t feel like work — rather it felt as though I were doing a favor for a lifelong friend. Best of all, Renee made me feel safe being out of my comfort zone, and I could try things without fear of failure. Any hospital of any size would be blessed to have Renee at the helm. ”

“I have the pleasure to watch Renee during her career grow and take on new leadership positions and challenges. Always with clear focus, energy and strong leadership she strives to enhance patient service and access. Renee exhibits a passion for her work and commitment to community.”

“Renee and I worked together for 9 years at Mark Reed Hospital which became Summit Pacific Medical Center during her tenure. I was the Chairman of the Board when she left the organization and I was sad to see her go. Renee helped to turn the organization around from one which was close to failing financially and was not respected to one that was one of the most successful hospitals in the state. During her time as CEO she not only turned the organization around financially, but lead the organization to build a new state of the art hospital. Through her executive leadership she also led the organization to become a Patient Centered Medical Home. Renee also assisted the Board of Commissioners in raising the bar of governance education and training and assisted us as organizational and community leaders to become stronger and more supportive as a board. We accomplished so much during her time in leadership that it is impossible to list it all here. Renee was wonderful to work with and changed the healthcare landscape by putting Summit Pacific Medical Center on the map. To this day we thrive because of the hard decisions she made while leading the organization and are thankful for the succession planning she did with our organization to ensure we would be successful into the future.”

“I have had the pleasure to know Renee Professionally for over 10 years. When I think of Renee 5 words come to mind:
Passion - She loves her work and inspires others through her vision of a better future. Compassion - Being a leader in rural Healthcare, she truly cares about the poor and vulnerable and how to provide them safe affordable services. Tenacity - When challenged with unforeseen variables, Renee finds alternative solutions to get the job at hand done. Loyalty - When she is in, she is ALL in. Lifelong Learner - Constantly striving to be better as a Healthcare Leader. I would give Renee my highest recommendation.”

“Renee is the type of CEO who has exceptional strategic vision and understands clearly how cyber risk is truly enterprise risk - with potential impact to care delivery and patient safety. A pleasure and an honor to have had the opportunity to work with Renee!”

“Renee is a dedicated, motivated leader who is driven by the desire to help others and she strives to improve herself and those who work with her.”
