In practice for nearly three decades, Waddah Nassar, M.D. was attracted to medicine because of the rewarding challenge it offers of making a major difference in the lives of others. He is an Oklahoma City-based primary care physician who is certified by the American Board of Family Medicine. Part of his practice focuses on hospice and palliative care, home health and post-acute care, as well as nursing home and geriatric care. His philosophy is to treat his patients and their families like his own family, listening to them attentively, educating them constantly, sympathizing with their challenges and engaging them in the decision-making process. To Dr. Nassar, family medicine is about physical, social and spiritual wellbeing.
