About
Dr El Khoury was drawn to Palliative Care after he discovered how powerful and underused the available tools are and how much they can change the experience of the disease and its impact on the whole family. He is particularly interested in providing care and support not only to the patients but also to their families who live through the different stages of their loved ones’ illness and have to deal with loss and grief.
