Jeff Hanson Named CEO of American Healthcare REIT
American Healthcare REIT has initiated a leadership realignment to support its next growth phase: Jeff Hanson is appointed CEO on a permanent basis after serving as interim CEO, with Gabe Willhite promoted to president in addition to COO duties. Danny Prosky is retiring as president and CEO after a 35-year career, remaining on the board and transitioning to adviser roles, and he will receive severance and other transition benefits under a separation agreement. Willhite’s rise to president complements Hanson’s leadership as the company emphasizes operational scale and platform growth. The board also named Scott Estes as lead independent director to strengthen governance, drawing on his private-sector capital markets experience. The series of moves collectively signals continuity of strategic vision while enabling a generational leadership shift at American Healthcare REIT.
