Sharon DeSantis

Sharon joined Pennsylvania Medical Society in 2017 as a member of the Physician Support Healthcare Operations Team.  Prior to 2017, and most recently, Sharon was the Practice Manager at UPMC Pinnacle Health Family Care of Middletown, and before that, the Front Desk Supervisor at Bridgewater Medical Group, a Robert Wood Johnson Physician Enterprise, in New Jersey.

During her tenure at Family Care of Middletown, her oversight included expansion of the practice into a new facility housing not only family care, but hospital-based services (lab draw, physician therapy, xray, mammography, and dexa-scan) with all patients processed through a central registration process. Sharon was a member of the Studer Group’s Journey to Excellence, represented the PEER review team for practice manager recruits, and was a co-creator of the manual for Practice Managers. Sharon was also named to Pinnacle Partners, a mentorship program for potential future leaders of Pinnacle Health.
