Princeton Medical Center Foundation Board of Directors Update
Passing the Gavel
Over the past six years, Dr. Compito served as Chairman of the PMC Foundation Board of Directors. He has provided extraordinary leadership and has been a tireless advocate for the Foundation’s mission. While Dr. Compito has completed his term as chairman, we are grateful that he will continue to remain as an active member of the board and support the work of the Foundation. The Foundation Board of Directors and staff thank Dr. Compito for his continued commitment and generosity.
As Dr. Compito ended his term, we welcomed W. Thomas Gutowski, MD as the new Chairman of the Foundation Board of Directors. Dr. Gutowski, Medical Director of the Jim Craigie Center for Joint Replacement at Princeton Medical Center, brings with him strong fundraising and leadership experience. He has served on the Board for six years and was actively involved in our Design for Healing Campaign to build the new hospital campus. We look forward to working with Dr. Gutowski in this new role as we continue build support and awareness of the Foundation within the community.
Additional Thanks
The PMC Foundation acknowledges and thanks outgoing Board Members R. Dixon “Bucky” Hayes and Stephen N. Allen. Both longtime, loyal supporters, Mr. Hayes and Mr. Allen served from 2017 to 2020, sharing their expertise in maintaining our fiscal integrity, assisting in fundraising operations and acting as advocates for the Foundation within our community.
The PMC Foundation also expresses gratitude to the current members of its Board of Directors:

2020 William P. Burks Physician Philanthropist of the Year
Dr. Gerard A. Compito
Established in 2012 to recognize a physician whose exemplary efforts have furthered the mission of the Princeton Medical Center (PMC) Foundation, as well as other local nonprofits and community service organizations, it is fitting that The William P. Burks Physician Philanthropist Award for 2020 has been awarded to Dr. Gerard A. Compito.
Dr. Compito is an interventional radiologist who is board certified in radiology and neuroradiology. Among this years’ candidates, Dr. Compito stood out as a physician whose contributions demonstrated an exceptional commitment to the vision and values of the PMC Foundation.
Dr. Compito chaired the PMC Foundation Board of Directors from 2013 to 2019. During his tenure, Dr. Compito grew the board both in size and diversity, helped us raise over $27 million, and played a critical role in helping us reach our $1 million fundraising goal for Princeton Health’s 2019 Centennial Gala.
A long-time generous donor and physician champion, Dr. Compito, along with his wife Connie, continue to advocate for Princeton Health within the community.
