Practice Philosophy: I believe that everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect and when I interact with patients and their loved ones, I understand that they are dealing with complex issues, looking for hope and need a physician who can help. I want to ensure that my patients have the knowledge they need to make the best decisions about treatment and care. In my practice, I use my training in areas such as molecular biology and genetics to help guide my decisions about a patient's care. There are far more treatment options available than ever before and I find it exciting to provide innovative, breakthrough care to my patients.

    I really enjoyed Dr. Masood. He was very bright, engaging and knowledgeable. He explained what came next and why. He was confident, at ease with himself making it more relaxing for me since I was a little nervous. I thoroughly trust him and felt I was in very good hands. I really wish every professional was like this.

    Dr Masood is a careing and thorough Dr who considers the health of the whole patient. He listens to my concerns and gives information so I can make an informed decision for myself.
  • Nov, 28 2023
    It's obvious that the physicians are under tremendous time restraints during appointments. Dr. Masood is excellent but he's working within a system where he's rushed and under pressure and patients know this. This does/should not reflect poorly on Dr. Masood and other physicians. This reflects poorly on MultiCare administration and the health care system that's in place
