Dr. Soud has 25 years of clinical experience and his guiding principles are to provide value to patients by effective communication, compassion and keeping them safe.

Dr. Soud hs freedom that most doctors don't, as he is part owner and CMO of a microhospital in Louisiana. This provides him and his group of highly qualified colleagues to just take care of people, and to spend quality time with patients without the burden typically seen in the concrete monster hospitals. Taking care of patients in the community with whom he has earned their trust is a true privelege, and has been Dr. Soud's lifelong ambition.
