Terros Health welcomes new Chief Medical Officer

Terros Health has hired a chief medical officer to guide the continued integration of physical and behavioral health at the organization’s 11 clinics and recovery centers across the Valley.

Dr. Vanna Campion joined the organization with a strong background in family medicine and a penchant for providing patient-centered care.

“I am thrilled to be part of an organization committed to caring for the whole person,” she said.

Campion comes to Terros Health from Dignity Health Medical Group’s Chandler Family Medicine, where she managed care for 1,800 patients per year, supervised medical providers and mentored nurse practitioner students. She introduced transition of care visits to facilitate safe patient discharges and reduce hospital readmissions, and helped create an East Valley Family Medicine Residency program.

“Dr. Campion brings a wealth of knowledge to Terros Health that will help improve the health and well-being of our patients and community,” said Dr. Karen Tepper, the organization’s president and CEO.

Campion earned a bachelor’s degree from Morehead State University in Morehead, Ky., and a medical degree from Ross University School of Medicine, Allopathic Medicine in Portsmouth, Dominica, West Indies. She completed her family medicine residency at the University of Arkansas School of Medicine, along with a fellowship in obesity medicine. She is a member of the American College of Healthcare Executives, Obesity Medicine Association and the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine, along with the American and Arizona academies of Family Practice and the American Medical Association.

When she is not caring for patients, she contributes her time and talents to the community. She serves on the executive board of directors for the Arizona Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired and has been at the forefront of COVID-19 vaccination efforts as a volunteer for the FIBCO Family Services’ Women’s Heart Health Fair.

Terros Health is an integrated healthcare company focused on the whole person, providing primary care and specializing in mental health and substance use treatment for more than 50 years. Visit terroshealth.org
