Maksoud holds a Bachelor of Science in pharmacy from St. John’s University. In 1993, he established Maksoud Pharm Inc., a chain of independent retail pharmacies in the New York area. He later went on to launch Community Care Rx, which employs more than 150 people and provides clients with custom-tailored pharmaceutical and clinical services.
Over the years , Maksoud established new divisions and subsidiaries focusing on clinical pharmacy services, in which experienced consultant pharmacists provide clinical expertise and services to long-term-care facilities and residential institutions. The recent acquisition of Orphan Pharmacy Services, a specialty pharmacy in Syosset, expanded the company’s footprint to serve customers in 31 states. OPS is a specialty Pharmacy, which works with the entire healthcare ecosystem to connect patients who have chronic and rare conditions to medication, information, and financial assistance. Maksoud and his team have special expertise in providing services to patients with HIV/AIDS, hepatitis, rheumatic disease, osteoporosis, Alzheimer and other conditions.
In 2018, Maksoud and three partners co-founded Dawah Pharmaceuticals Inc., whose goal is to design and build an FDA-compliant pharmaceutical manufacturing facility to address the need for high-quality products in the global sterile injectables and ophthalmology marketplace.
To further assist Seniors and vulnerable populations in our communities, Maksoud recently launched The Maksoud Foundation, a charitable organization whose goal is to increase access to medication, healthcare and other vital resources.
