We are honored to announce that Gail Aviado, Chief Executive Officer of both Chino Valley Medical Center and Montclair Hospital Medical Center, has been named one of Modern Healthcare’s Leading Women for 2025.
This national recognition celebrates women executives who are shaping the future of healthcare.
“The roles held by the honorees on our 2025 list of Leading Women and Rising Stars vary greatly but they all have one thing in common — a commitment to helping their organizations reach clinical, operational and financial goals,” said Mary Ellen Podmolik, Editor-in-Chief of Modern Healthcare.
Gail’s journey in healthcare began in 2005, when she joined Prime Healthcare as a Charge Nurse. With determination, clinical excellence, and a deep passion for patient care, she steadily rose to become Chief Nursing Officer. She now serves as CEO of not just one, but two award-winning hospitals in the Inland Empire.
Her career is a powerful example of what it means to lead with heart. Gail has dedicated nearly two decades to advancing healthcare access, transforming hospital culture, and empowering staff to thrive in an environment built on compassion, equity, and excellence.
