About Douglas Spies

As a healthcare focused, licensed architect, and a MHA graduate, I bring a unique and diverse background of experience in development, planning, design, construction, and operations within the healthcare environment. Connecting strategic facilities development with operations, recruitment, and growth strategies aligning with the vision of the health system, is central to my approach. I am excited to bring the owners perspective from my 10 years of facilities development at UPMC. The opportunity to lead CPL’s Southeastern region for Healthcare combines my strategic planning and business leadership to create a client focused experience for our customers.
