Will Condon, a Pensacola native who has spent the past three years as the city’s market president for Ascension Sacred Heart, has been named chief executive officer of the five-hospital health system serving Northwest Florida, effective July 1.

  • Condon most recently served as interim market lead before being elevated to the system’s top job.

Born and raised in Pensacola, Condon said his family has depended on Ascension Sacred Heart for generations, and he considers it an honor to lead the health system in the community that shaped him.

“Ascension Sacred Heart has earned the trust of this community over the decades,” Condon said. “My role is to build on that foundation by growing the services people need here, close to home, and to make sure this region has access to care that rivals any major market in the country.”

During his tenure as Pensacola market president, Condon led Sacred Heart Pensacola to become Northwest Florida’s only Level I Trauma Center and achieve Level IV Maternal Levels of Care designation. The Pensacola campus has earned a Leapfrog Health Grade “A” for five consecutive years and has ranked among the top 50 cardiovascular providers in the country for nine consecutive years by Fortune and Premier, Inc.

Beyond the hospital, Condon serves on the boards of Gulf Coast Kids House and Health and Hope Clinic.

Ascension Sacred Heart Health System includes Sacred Heart Pensacola, Studer Family Children’s Hospital at Ascension Sacred Heart, Ascension Sacred Heart Emerald Coast, Ascension Sacred Heart Bay, Ascension Sacred Heart Gulf and 108 Ascension Sacred Heart Medical Group locations from Perdido to Apalachicola. Together, the system’s sites of care serve nearly 1.3 million patient visits across the Panhandle.
