Congratulations to ACC’s 72nd President and the NC Chapter Past Governor, B. Hadley Wilson!

"I am most looking forward to increasing member value, growth and engagement in the College on an individual basis. To me, this includes expanding the offerings of committees, sections and meetings, as well as increasing member oversight and involvement in the multitude of activities and educational opportunities available through the ACC, both in the U.S. and internationally". - Dr. B. Hadley Wilson.

Driven by his deep-rooted passion for service and leadership, B. Hadley Wilson, MD, FACC, is starting a new chapter, this time as the ACC's 72nd President. Wilson's term officially began during ACC's annual Convocation ceremony closing out ACC.23/WCC in New Orleans, with the passing of the presidential chain from Edward T.A. Fry, MD, MACC.

Dr. Wilson started with the ACC North Carolina Chapter as a councilor and then became Chapter Governor over a 10-year period. His time as Chair of the ACC Board of Governors inspired him to seek leadership on the ACC Board of Trustees. He have always sought out leadership positions and was the Chief of a cardiovascular division of over 85 cardiologists for more than 15 years.

Dr. Wilson truly enjoys interacting with others and appreciates seeing progress as it unfolds. He is thankful for his mentors and supporters along the way, starting with Gottlieb C. Friesinger, MD, FACC, Chief of the cardiology division at Vanderbilt and a previous Chair of the ACC Board of Governors in the 1980s.
