White has dedicated himself to direct patient care, clinical research, and leadership activities designed to improve both individual lives and our healthcare delivery system.
Building on a career in interventional cardiology, including the acute treatment of heart attack and stroke patients, Dr. White is the founder and executive director of Vessel Health, a medical enterprise pioneering prevention in the achievement of cardiovascular well-being. Former creator and medical director of the Heart Hospital of New Mexico, he has served as president of the Greater Albuquerque Medical Association, governor of the American College of Cardiology, president of the American Heart Association, and leader of the Southwest Heart Foundation.
Anchored in a profession that began as a fix-it approach for episodic health challenges, Dr. White has concluded that we, as individuals and as a society, must enhance our focus on prevention and take a proactive approach to maintaining the health of our circulatory system and promoting our personal well-being. Through Vessel Health he supports his commitment to heart health as well as to the health of the greater community. His philosophy in a nutshell: "Treat the system, not the symptom."view less
