Ascension Saint Thomas Highlands Hospital is pleased to announce the appointment of Bradley Lowery as Chief Administrative Officer. Lowery brings extensive experience in healthcare leadership, positioning the hospital for continued growth and excellence.
With a proven track record of success, Lowery most recently served as Administrator at Atmore Community Hospital in Alabama, where he oversaw comprehensive management and administrative functions for all hospital services and clinics. Prior to this role, he was the Director of Operations at Atmore Community Hospital, leading operational improvements across physician clinics and services. His leadership was instrumental in enhancing the hospital’s commitment to providing high-quality care to the local community.
“We are thrilled to welcome Bradley to Ascension Saint Thomas Highlands,” said Neal Kelley, Regional Hospital President at Ascension Saint Thomas. “His experience in healthcare administration and his dedication to improving patient care will be instrumental in furthering the hospital’s mission to provide exceptional care to the Sparta community and beyond.”
Ascension Saint Thomas Highlands Hospital, serving the community since 1929, is a Joint Commission-accredited facility and part of the Saint Thomas Stroke Network. This 60-bed hospital provides a broad range of services, including emergency care, behavioral health, and rehabilitation services. It recently achieved a five-star rating for patient recommendations—an honor shared by only three hospitals in Tennessee.
"I am excited to be joining the Ascension Saint Thomas team to serve the Sparta community,” Lowery said. “Coming from another rural-based facility, I understand how important hospitals like Highlands are to not only patients, but the community as a whole. I am eager to build upon the good work that the medical staff and Ascension Saint Thomas have been able to achieve."
