Robert “Bob” Begliomini, PharmD

President

Jefferson Health–Lehigh Valley Region

Allentown, PA

Dr. Begliomini has spent more than 30 years in healthcare and currently serves as president of Jefferson Health’s Lehigh Valley Region, providing executive leadership for a network of community hospitals. He oversees the following: Lehigh Valley Hospital-17th Street in Allentown, Lehigh Valley Hospital-Tilghman in in Allentown, Lehigh Valley Hospital-Hazleton (Pa.), Lehigh Valley Hospital-Schuylkill in Pottsville, Pa., Lehigh Valley Hospital-Carbon in Lehighton, Pa., Lehigh Valley Hospital-Pocono in East Stroudsburg, Pa., Lehigh Valley Hospital-Cedar Crest in Allentown, Lehigh Valley Hospital-Dickson City (Pa.) and Lehigh Valley Hospital-Muhlenberg in Bethlehem, Pa. When a fire broke out on the roof of an outpatient orthopedic area at LVH-Dickson City in February 2026 and spread through the building, Dr. Begliomini directed a response that safely evacuated every patient, visitor and staff member and transferred 77 patients, including six in the ICU, to other area hospitals with no loss of life. Under his leadership, the hospital’s emergency department reopened within eight days, orthopedic, rheumatology and podiatry services were relocated to nearby facilities, and nearly 250 patients received care within the first three days of reopening. Dr. Begliomini first began his career as a pharmacy administrator and spent more than a decade at LVH-Muhlenberg, rising to vice president and senior vice president of operations during a period when the hospital opened a family health pavilion, including a family birth and newborn center and a level 2 neonatal ICU, and earned level 2 trauma center accreditation. He is a fellow of the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists and serves on the board of trustees for ArtsQuest and the board of the Lehigh Valley Economic Development Corporation. He received the Bethlehem Chamber of Commerce’s 2023 “Frank L. Marcon Award,” was named to the 2023 Lehigh Valley Business “Power List for Healthcare,” and was included on City & State Pennsylvania‘s “Healthcare Trailblazer List” for 2024.
