Isaac Sendros is a mission inspired executive who brings well over a decades worth of leadership experience to Avista Adventist Hospital. Prior to Centura Issac served as the vice president of operations at AdventHealth Kissimmee, FL. Throughout his career in health care, Isaac has always placed the organization’s mission at the forefront of every initiative. He has led several multi-million-dollar expansion projects and is credited with significant growth in operational efficiency, finance, and patient volume - but it’s his commitment to those he serves that’s front and center for the leader. Isaac adds, “I am passionate about the health and wellbeing of our communities. Under my leadership, Avista will be front and center to assist and provide solutions for the needs of our community as well as continue to provide hope and healing to those we service inside and outside our walls.”

The opportunity to build on the hospital’s rich legacy, which dates back over 100 years, is an appealing challenge. Isaac says, “From its deep roots as the Boulder Colorado Sanitarium, to the state-of-the-art facility we see today, one thing has remained the same and that’s the continued focus on faith-based healthcare that seeks to care for the mind, body, and spirit of the community. It’s a true honor to be entrusted with the next chapter of the hospital’s legacy.”
