A veteran of hospital management in Greer will soon be taking the helm of Village Hospital— Spartanburg Regional’s newest campus.

 

Phil Feisal has been named administrator of the 48-bed anchor hospital at the Village at Pelham. Feisal will assume his new position in July.

 

Most recently, Feisal served as Executive Vice President of Business Performance for Bon Secours St. Francis Health System in Greenville. He was also president of Allen Bennett Memorial Hospital in the Greenville Hospital System.

 

Feisal’s 14 years of experience in the Greenville and Greer areas will help further strengthen Village Hospital’s growing position with the community, said Ingo Angermeier, President and CEO of Spartanburg Regional.

 

“We couldn’t be happier that Phil is joining our team,” Angermeier said. “Phil’s history in Greer, combined with his valuable perspective on what it takes to manage a hospital, particularly in this community, portend great things for Village Hospital and the citizens of Greer.”

 

Feisal’s memberships in a host of local civic organizations, including a term as chairman of the Greater Greer Chamber of Commerce, showcase his roots in the community, said Greer Mayor Rick Danner.

 

“Phil’s past involvement allows him to hit the ground running,” Danner said. “His knowledge of local events and people is fantastic. That sensitivity to community issues, coupled with his vision for his employees, as well as the citizens, ensures a bright future for our community and Village Hospital.”

 

Village Hospital represents a new approach to health care that mirrors the growth and innovation taking place in this unique community, Feisal said.

 

"I am excited to be a part of the new Village Hospital and look forward to returning to the Greer community,” Feisal said. “This is a tremendous opportunity to work in an environment that is dedicated to patient-focused care, where each day gives us the ability to provide for the individual needs of patients and their family members.”

 

A native of Memphis, Feisal succeeds David Parks, Village Hospital’s former administrator. Parks resigned last month.
