GUTHRIE, Okla. – Logan County's Bobby Stitt is one of three Mercy hospital leaders named to a national list of rural health care executives to know in 2025.
Stitt, administrator of Mercy Hospital Logan County, is on Becker’s Hospital Review’s list of list of 118 rural hospital and health system presidents and CEOs to know. Becker’s, a leading health care industry publication, makes the list to recognize leaders driving growth and implementing resilient strategies to keep hospitals thriving over the long haul.
“Rural hospitals are more than just health care facilities – they’re the nerve center of communities across America that rely on Mercy for care they can’t get anywhere else near their homes,” said Dr. John Mohart, Mercy executive vice president and chief operating officer. “We’re proud to see Bobby on this prestigious list with other prominent leaders in health care from around the country.”
The other Mercy leaders to make the list are Daryle Voss, president of Mercy Southern Oklahoma Communities, and Chris Wibbenmeyer, administrator of Mercy Hospital Perry in Perryville, Missouri.
About Stitt
Along with the Logan County facility, Stitt is also the administrator of Mercy Hospital Kingfisher and Mercy Hospital Watonga – Mercy’s critical access hospitals in the greater Oklahoma City metro.
The Becker’s list noted that Stitt leads all operational and clinical co-workers across those hospitals, overseeing organizational structure, alignment, strategic direction, financial performance and community involvement.
Stitt began his career in hospital administration in 2012 and has seen sustained successes in operations, finances and patient satisfaction throughout his tenure.
Each of the three hospitals is routinely recognized for excellence. Most recently, the hospitals in Logan County and Kingfisher were recognized for being among the best critical access hospitals for quality, and Mercy Watonga was recognized as being the best critical access hospital in the state.
