Ashley McClellan

HCA Gulf Coast Division announced yesterday that Ashley McClellan was named Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of The Woman’s Hospital of Texas in Houston. Ashley has served as the CEO of Medical Center of Lewisville in HCA’s North Texas Division since 2011. She is a present board member of the DFW Hospital Council (DFWHC).

Ashley began her career with HCA in the Chief Operating Officer (COO) development program as the Associate Administrator at HCA’s Overland Park Medical Center in Kansas. She was promoted to COO at Medical Center of Lewisville and served that role until she was promoted to CEO.

Ashley is a Fellow in the American College of Healthcare Executives and earned her BBA in Finance from Southern Methodist University, and both her MBA and MHA from Texas Woman’s University. In 2010, Ashley was honored in the Dallas Business Journal’s annual list 40 Under Forty and was presented DFWHC’s 2011 Young Healthcare Executive of the Year Award.

“We are sad to lose Ashley as she has been such a great contributor to not just the DFWHC Board, but North Texas healthcare,” said W. Stephen Love, president/CEO of DFWHC. “This is a great step for her and an opportunity that is well deserved.”

Ashley will be relocating to Houston with her husband, Brett, and their two sons, Brooks and Spencer, and will begin her new role May 12.
