2021 Health System Executive of the Year Honoree: Rob Curry


Rob Curry
Chief Executive Officer
Emanate Health

Under Rob Curry’s leadership, Citrus Valley Health Partners transitioned from the community hospital down the street to become Emanate Health in 2019—the largest health care system in the San Gabriel Valley. In addition to the three hospitals, Emanate Health’s footprint includes 16 primary and specialty care locations throughout the region as part of a growing, dynamic, and comprehensive health care system.

During his tenure of 13 years at Emanate Health, Curry has been the driving force behind building a mission-driven, comprehensive health care system to serve a diverse population of one million people with quality, compassionate care.
In the last decade, Curry has transformed Emanate Health into a financially sustainable health care enterprise. Fitch Ratings recently awarded Emanate Health an A+ rating for revenue bonds issued in 2020 and a stable outlook moving forward.
During the height of the pandemic, when public health guidelines were being observed, Emanate Health, under Curry’s stewardship, launched a series of “Ask The Doctor” segments to provide valuable health care educational outreach and encourage the community not to delay their care. Research showed that community members were searching online for health-related information during the pandemic.

As an industry advocate, Curry has dedicated his more than 40 years of hospital leadership to expand access to care, address health care disparities, and promote greater health equity for all. He also serves as the Board Chair for Private Essential Access Community Hospitals (PEACH) – a network of private, core safety net hospitals in California that care for a disproportionate share of low-income, medically vulnerable patients.
