Meet Our Doctors

Gino J. Sedillo, MD, FACC
Founder / CEO

It seems Dr. Gino Sedillo has been on the move his whole life. Literally, as a youngster and, as an adult, professionally.

“I had an interesting childhood, much in part due to my father,Arthur’s, profession,” said Dr. Sedillo, who was born in Albuquerque, N.M. A former Golden Gloves boxing champion and U.S. marine, Dr. Sedillo said his dad began his law enforcement career as a state patrolman and eventually became the first Hispanic agent in the Drug Enforcement Administration.

Michael G. Tedla, MD

Born and raised in Ethiopia, Michael Tedla is the youngest of 4 children. His mother was a schoolteacher, and his father was Manager at SOS Children’s village (non-governmental organization focused on supporting children without parental care and families at risk).

Michael Tedla knew he wanted to be a doctor at a young age living in underserved communities. He joined Jimma University, one of the only 3 internationally accredited medical schools in Ethiopia at the time. After obtaining his medical degree, he practiced Tropical medicine in Haramaya, one of Ethiopia’s underserved areas for 2 years. He also had the opportunity to teach medical students at Haramaya University.
