A
s I pen this article, I can’t
help but marvel at the
breakneck speed at which
health care is changing,
both nationally and right here in our
region. New health care information
technology, such as electronic health
records, has created new demands.
There is also a growing focus on
transparency about quality and costs
of service as well as changes in the
way we are reimbursed by insurance
companies for the care we provide.
These are just some of the issues that
cross my desk every day. Fortunately,
I have a top-tier management team
and, now, a complete executive team
behind me to ensure Sonora Regional
Medical Center remains an excellent
place to receive care.
I am pleased to announce the
two newest members of my
executive team: Vice President
of Operations Michelle Fuentes
and Chief Financial Officer Greg
McCulloch. Greg and Michelle
bring a fresh perspective and energy
that complement the knowledge
and experience of our current
executives, Chief Medical Officer
Edward Clinite, DO, and Senior Vice
President Julie Kline, RN.
Michelle comes to Sonora from
Orlando, Florida. Her background
includes serving as an assistant vice
president at Florida Hospital in

Message from the president
ANDREW JAHN, PRESIDENT AND CEO
East Orlando. Using her expertise and
previous experience, she is leading the
effort to transform the Medical Center’s
patient experience and to foster a
culture of engaged employees. A strong
corporate culture focused on quality is
imperative to ensure excellent patient
care.
Greg is leading the Medical Center’s
initiative to stay financially strong
during these uncertain financial times.
Rising costs, decreasing reimbursements
and an increasingly competitive
landscape require a leader who excels
in expense management and finding
growth opportunities. Greg fits that
mold. Before coming to Sonora, he
served as chief financial officer at Walla
Walla General Hospital in Washington
state.
Both Michelle and Greg are
committed to the mission of Adventist
Health and dedicated to making the
Medical Center the best health care
facility for our community. I’m thrilled
to have my leadership team in place.
This group puts the mission and vision
of the Medical Center into action. Our
future looks bright.
Blessings,
Andrew Jahn
President and CEO
Our leadership.
