Named one of the Buffalo’s Most Influential People in 2013 by Buffalo Business First, he serves on the Buffalo Niagara Partnership Board of Directors and the American Society of Clinical Oncology. Trump earned his medical degree from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore and served as chief resident in internal medicine at Johns Hopkins Hospital. He is a diplomate of the American Board of Internal Medicine and a fellow of the American College of Physicians. Wingerter has served since 2009 as president of Univera Healthcare, where he is responsible for the nonprofit

health plan’s commercial, Medicare and SafetyNet lines of business in Western New York. Prior to this, he was vice president of Health Care Solutions at Genpact of New Jersey and held leadership roles at other health care organizations and in the business industry. Wingerter serves on the Buffalo Niagara Partnership as well as the Buffalo Niagara Enterprise Board of Directors.
