Eller Has Mixed Emotions Regarding Duffield’s Departure
Sonora, CA — Sonora Regional Medical Center President/CEO Jeff Eller has mixed emotions regarding Doug Duffield’s January departure.
Duffield will be leaving his post as V.P. for Business Planning and Marketing to accept a position as Chief Operating Officer for Florida Hospital Zephyrhills in the greater Tampa area.
Commented Eller, “There’s no question Doug will leave his stamp here at S.R.M.C. He’s done a terrific job in our Marketing Department relating to our community and really has been an important piece in developing business growth opportunities. He is going to be missed tremendously but we’re very excited for Doug and Melanie that he’s going to continue to provide excellent leadership in a Seventh Day Adventist facility on the east coast.
Doug is passionate about our mission and he’s certainly competent in what he’s going to do as a Chief Operating Officer for that system in Florida.
Yes, we definitely have mixed emotions.”
