Joining the 12-member board are Executive Director of Clinton County Industrial Development Agency Molly Ryan, Graham Niles of Niles Wealth Management and Joseph Donnery, DPM of Plattsburgh Podiatry.

“The energy, enthusiasm and expertise of our three newest members will truly benefit our mission to ensure high quality health care for our community,” said CVPH Board President Elizabeth Vicencio.

Ryan, Niles and Donnery replace outgoing trustees JoAnn Gleeson-Kreig, PhD, Paola Fedi, MD, and Lee Ann Pray. Both Gleeson-Kreig and Fedi served for nine years, the maximum allowed by the board’s bylaws and Pray served a full three-year term.

“It has been a privilege to work with JoAnn Gleeson-Kreig, PhD, Paola Fedi, MD, and Lee Ann Pray. On behalf of the entire board, I thank them for sharing their time, energy and expertise,” Vicencio said.
