Leigha Andrews

Leigha Andrews is the interim CEO. She recently joined Marin Community Clinics in June 2020 after relocating to the Bay Area from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. In Louisiana, Leigha served as the Director of Clinical Services at Open Health Care Clinic (OHCC), a Federally Qualified Health Center. Leigha obtained her Bachelor of Science in Microbiology at Southern University and A&M College in 1997 and her Master of Business Administration in 2004 at University of Phoenix both in Baton Rouge, LA. Leigha has extensive training in operations management, customer service, and project and relationship management. Prior to working at OHCC, Leigha was the Business Manager at a hospital-based HIV clinic in Baton Rouge, where she supported their Ryan White grants and services. Leigha has almost 20 years of combined operations management experience in healthcare, credit counseling as well as banking.

Leigha’s passion for community healthcare was ignited through serving the marginalized populations in south Louisiana, especially the LGBTQ community and people living with HIV at the clinics she managed and directed. Leigha has shared that working for a community health center and with a team of providers and staff who are passionate about serving our patients, makes her role here a perfect combination of her dream job and her life’s work. This quote by Owen Arthur has influenced her career in healthcare, “For he who has health has hope; and he who has hope, has everything.”
