More Experience. More for You.

You deserve access to world-class health care and affordable, high-quality health plans. Now that Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN) is part of Jefferson Health, you have access to all of it more than ever before.

It takes decades of experience and strong leadership to provide what you deserve. As LVHN and Jefferson come together, leaders from both organizations are serving in roles that allow them to focus even deeper on the services you and your family depend on.

• Dr. Nester – who has served you at LVHN for more than 25 years and as our community’s top health care leader for more than a decade – now has an expanded role as Chief Operating Officer of Jefferson. Dr. Nester is a firm believer that the health of our overall community is only as good as the least healthy segments of our community. His passion drives his work, which now includes oversight of Jefferson Health Plans, health care information technology, facilities and construction, and ambulatory services, such as testing, urgent care and rehabilitation, across all of Jefferson Health, including in all Lehigh Valley and northeastern Pennsylvania communities. His unwavering commitment to give you and your family – including vulnerable, at-risk people – access to the care they need to live well is even more focused in his expanded role.
• Dr. Yehia is overseeing all Jefferson Health hospitals, including all LVHN hospitals, as well as physician practices and health care services. He has experience leading one of the largest nonprofit health systems in the U.S. and has a proven track record of promoting exceptional quality, safety and patient experiences across large health systems.
• Bob Begliomini, who has served you at LVHN for nearly 25 years, is now Regional President of seven LVHN hospitals including Lehigh Valley Hospital (LVH)–Cedar Crest as well as Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s Hospital.
• Jim Miller, who has served you at LVHN for nearly 25 years, is now Regional President of eight LVHN hospitals including LVH–Muhlenberg, LVH–Hecktown Oaks and LVH–Pocono. Bob and Jim will report to and work closely with Dr. Yehia to ensure you receive world-class care close to home.
• Amy Nyberg, who has served as a health care professional in our community for 13 years, is now President of Ambulatory Services and Growth for Jefferson Health. Amy will report to and collaborate with Dr. Nester to give you convenient access to care and the health care experience you deserve.

You deserve leaders who work for you and passionately support the providers and staff you rely on to stay healthy. Now that LVHN is part of Jefferson Health, you have just that: longtime trusted leaders in your community – and 65,000 dedicated colleagues – driving the future of health care, together.
