Dr. Hassan Sannoufi MD, CCFP, EM - Founder and Chief Medical Officer

Meet Dr. Hassan Sannoufi, the visionary founder of La Vie Health Centre, whose profound connection to healthcare was shaped by a personal journey. Influenced by witnessing his father's open-heart surgery during his childhood, Dr. Sannoufi gained invaluable insights into the pivotal role lifestyle choices play in shaping one's health. This early experience ignited his passion for advocating the significance of lifestyle decisions in achieving overall well-being.

Guided by the belief that primary disease prevention and lifestyle adjustments are foundational to enhancing health, Dr. Sannoufi embarked on an extraordinary career path. His research endeavors at McGill University focused on genetic markers for breast cancer, emphasizing the importance of early detection and lifestyle modifications in disease prevention.

Dr. Sannoufi furthered his commitment to healthcare by expanding his expertise in family medicine within the Nebraska healthcare system. His educational journey included a family medicine residency at Dalhousie University in Halifax, where he served as the chief resident in the family medicine department, highlighting his dedication to the field. Since 2004, he has left a significant impact as an Emergency Physician in various Ontario hospitals, obtaining official certification in emergency medicine in 2012. Currently, he serves as a staff Emergency Physician at the Queensway Carleton Hospital.

In 2012, Dr. Sannoufi's dedication culminated in the establishment of La Vie Health Centre. Here, he envisions a healthcare paradigm where early detection, preventive measures, and even the reversal of the aging process form integral aspects of fostering a healthy lifestyle. Driven by unwavering commitment, Dr. Sannoufi continues to shape the landscape of preventive and comprehensive healthcare at La Vie Health Centre.
