About Me

Dr. Truitte is board certified in Internal Medicine-Cardiovascular Disease and Echocardiography. After earning his medical degree from University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, he received additional training through a residency in Internal Medicine at Temple University Hospital, and a fellowship in Cardiology at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center. 

He loves caring for the Lynchburg & Danville community because "our patients are our family; they trust us to care for them and we abide by that trust." When he is not providing care at the Heart and Vascular Institute, he likes to spend his time with Karin (my wife and best friend) and our five grown children when in town, along with hiking, biking, and traveling when we can.

Low heart rate was said to be caused by COVID; but, doctor suggested that radiation treatments received as a child has damaged my heart. The shock of hearing "pacemaker" was unexpected and unsettling.

Ratings and comments are obtained from verified patient survey data collected on behalf of Centra by a third-party vendor, Press Ganey Associates, Inc. Centra uses Press Ganey’s MD satisfaction surveys to assess patients' experiences with healthcare providers and staff. In order to support full transparency, Centra ensures that the full range of patient comments, both positive and negative, are published.

Star ratings are displayed only for those physicians who participate in Centra’s patient experience survey program through Press Ganey and have received a minimum of 30 surveys responses.

Despite the drive toward full transparency, occasionally some comments cannot be published because they jeopardize the patient’s privacy, contain vulgar or offensive language, or contain libelous or defamatory content. In these rare instances, comment exclusion based on a strict set of exclusion criteria may be appropriate.
