Patricia A. Abboud MD,CPE

Patricia Abboud, M.D., worked as an attending physician at Dayton Children’s Hospital. She loved the work in Ohio, but it wasn’t long before she and her husband began looking for opportunities to work closer to the Middle East.

Abboud and her family are Lebanese. They considered moving to Lebanon and other parts of the Persian Gulf, but Abboud couldn’t find a place where she felt she could fully leverage the training she received as a fellow at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, or as an attending physician at Dayton Children’s Hospital. That is until she discovered Sidra Medicine in Doha, Qatar.
