Good Shepherd names president, CEO
Stacy Wescoe//May 27, 2020//
There will soon be a new president and CEO at Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Network in Allentown.
Its board of trustees has named Michael Spigel to the position. Spigel currently services as president and COO of Brooks Rehabilitation in Jacksonville, Florida.
He will start in the position Aug. 3.
Spigel replaces Gary Schmidt, chair of the board of trustees, who has been serving as interim president and CEO since 2018. Schmidt will continue to serve as board chair.
“Good Shepherd conducted an extensive national search to find a leader with the experience, expertise, passion and purpose befitting a world-class rehabilitation network,” said Schmidt in a release. “Most recently, Michael led a post-acute network with a continuum of care and growth trajectory that closely mirrors that of Good Shepherd, having grown from a mid-sized hospital with regional recognition to a large, nationally recognized provider.”
Spigel had been with Brooks Rehabilitation since 2004. Before that he worked at the RehabCare: Group in St. Louis, Missouri.
Spigel earned his master’s degree in Health Administration from Chapman University in Orange County, California, and his bachelor’s degree in Physical Therapy from the University of Maryland.
Good Shepherd is a not-for-profit health-care network founded in 1908. It has a staff of 2,100 that treats patients at more than 70 locations in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
