Founder & President
About Mary
Mary Hardenbergh, CPMSM, President and Founder of The Hardenbergh Group and Hardenbergh Interim Staffing Group, has enjoyed contributing to the medical staff and credentialing services industry since 1986. Mary was a Corporate Director of Medical Affairs when she successfully established one of the first centralized credentialing organizations and single medical staff structures in the country for a major multi-entity health system in 1988. This led to national attention and the development of a sought-after healthcare consulting business. Mary discovered a need in the staffing field while consulting in hospital medical staff departments that could not be overlooked. The demand for highly-skilled temporary medical staff professionals (MSP) around the country was evident. She created a team of many of the best certified MSPs around the country to travel on-site to health systems, CVOs, credentialing departments, insurance plans, and other healthcare entities to step in and provide their expertise seamlessly, efficiently, and needing no training. Many of the original MSP team is still lending their expertise to Hardenbergh 20+ years later, in addition to the hundreds more that have joined the Hardenbergh pool of phenomenal medical services professionals.
Hardenbergh continues to be the leader in the staffing industry for medical staff services and credentialing with the help of these “best of the best” MSPs and a top-notch corporate team continuing the personalized-service approach with both contractors and clients, which has allowed Mary to change business gears and become active in other community and national projects.
