The Difference

Eight things no other service offers.

01

Built by Clinicians, Not Engineers

Every clinical workflow, risk model, report template, and AI prompt was designed by practicing cardiovascular surgeons and cardiologists with decades of combined operative and procedural experience. The platform is the Heart Team’s clinical judgment encoded into technology.

Most health tech companies are built by engineers who consult physicians. WhiteGloveMD was built by clinicians who happen to build technology. That difference shows in every clinical decision the platform makes.

02

True Heart Team — Every Single Case

An interventional cardiologist AND a cardiac surgeon review every case independently, then confer. This is the ACC/AHA Class I guideline for Heart Team decision-making.

The Heart Team approach is mandated by ACC/AHA for complex valve disease, left main CAD, and borderline surgical candidates. Most hospitals don't actually implement it. WhiteGloveMD does — for every case, every time.

03

Complete Independence

No hospital affiliations. No surgical volume incentives. No referral fee arrangements. WhiteGloveMD has zero financial interest in whether you have surgery or not.

This is the most important differentiator. When a hospital surgeon recommends surgery, they have an inherent incentive — volume, revenue, departmental metrics. WhiteGloveMD's physicians have exactly one incentive: getting the clinical answer right.

04

STS-Benchmarked Surgeon Matching

Sentinel queries the Society of Thoracic Surgeons National Database to match you with surgeons based on procedure-specific volume, mortality, and complication rates — not geography or hospital affiliation.

If surgery IS recommended, you shouldn't just go to the nearest hospital. STS star ratings show enormous variation in outcomes between programs. A 3-star program performing your exact procedure at high volume is materially different from a 1-star program doing it occasionally.

05

24-Hour Turnaround

Industry average for second opinions is 1-2 weeks. WhiteGloveMD delivers a complete Heart Team review in 24 hours from receipt of medical records.

When you're facing heart surgery, every day of uncertainty is agonizing. We built the entire platform around speed without sacrificing thoroughness — AI handles extraction and analysis, physicians handle judgment.

06

Purpose-Built Clinical AI

Clintelligence™ is not ChatGPT with a medical prompt. It's a proprietary clinical intelligence engine — 28 purpose-built agents working in a structured pipeline to extract, analyze, calculate, and generate.

Each agent has a single, bounded clinical task: Scout ingests records, Pulse extracts signals, Spectra runs risk models, Command reasons clinically, Atlas assembles reports. No agent steps outside its lane. That structure is what makes the output trustworthy.

07

Defensible Documentation

Every recommendation is traced to source documents, clinical guidelines, and national outcomes data. Your White Glove Insights™ Report is a permanent, defensible medical record.

In a medicolegal environment, documentation is everything. Every finding, every risk score, every recommendation in your report traces back to a specific source — a guideline, a data point, an imaging finding. Nothing is generated from thin air.

08

Your Data, Your Report, Forever

Your White Glove Insights™ Report lives in your secure portal permanently. You own it. You can share it with any physician, hospital, or insurer — it's yours.

Most second opinion services give you a letter. WhiteGloveMD gives you a 13-section clinical document with risk scores, guideline references, surgeon recommendations, and plain-language explanations. It's not a letter — it's a framework for decision-making.

The only opinion that matters is the right one.

When a hospital surgeon tells you that you need open-heart surgery, they may be right. But they also have an inherent conflict of interest — surgical volume drives hospital revenue, departmental budgets, and professional advancement.

WhiteGloveMD has no operating rooms. No hospital beds. No surgical volume targets. Our physicians have exactly one job: tell you the truth about your cardiac condition, based on your data, referenced to national guidelines, and benchmarked against outcomes from every major cardiac surgery program in the country.
