In an era where parts of the healthcare industry are driven by scale and financial engineering, Dr. Amjad M. Hammad, MD, MBA, is building something different. Baraka Prosperity Partners, the physician-led, values-aligned investment firm he founded, is shaping a strategic healthcare corridor linking Jordan, the GCC, and the United States. With a background in retinal surgery, clinical practice leadership, and healthcare operations, Dr. Hammad is advancing a model of outpatient care that integrates ethics, stewardship, and operational excellence.
Tell us about Baraka Prosperity Partners.
Baraka Prosperity Partners is grounded in an ethical and faith-aligned philosophy that emphasizes stewardship, fairness, and long-term community benefit. The firm is structured to ensure discipline in how capital is deployed and how platforms are built. This means prioritizing real assets, minimizing unnecessary financial risk, and ensuring transparency in transactions.
Faith-aligned finance, in this context, is not restrictive—it encourages responsible, asset-backed growth and avoids speculative structures. This resonates particularly strongly across the GCC, where family offices and institutional investors increasingly prioritize values-based frameworks.
Baraka’s investment approach focuses on projects that deliver measurable improvements in healthcare access and quality. Whether developing physician-led centers or outpatient platforms, the emphasis is on clinical excellence, durable economic value, and community benefit.
What is your personal philosophy? What motivates you?
My philosophy is shaped by three pillars: cross-border collaboration, ethical investment frameworks, and physician-led operations. Together, these ensure that healthcare innovation remains purposeful and grounded in real-world outcomes.
Early in my medical career, I treated a patient in Jordan who had traveled hours for a basic diagnostic evaluation. That experience stayed with me. It highlighted the gaps in outpatient access—not just in Jordan but across the region—and it continues to motivate me to build systems that close those gaps. For me, improvements such as shorter wait times, expanded specialty services, or reliable diagnostics represent meaningful human impact, not abstract metrics.
What is your vision for Baraka?
Our vision is to build outpatient healthcare platforms that are durable, scalable, and aligned with patient needs. True healthcare transformation requires more than capital—it requires shared values, operational excellence, and disciplined execution. It requires clinicians and operators working together.
Across the region, chronic disease rates are rising and populations are seeking more accessible, community-based outpatient care. Baraka Prosperity Partners is positioned to advance this shift by combining the strengths of the U.S. outpatient ecosystem, Jordan’s medical talent, and the GCC’s investment capacity.
What is your strategy? How are you growing the business?
Our central strategy is the creation of a seamless healthcare corridor linking Jordan, the GCC, and the United States. For years, people have discussed the potential for such collaboration; Baraka is turning it into a reality.
We do this by building outpatient ecosystems, MSO platforms, and real-estate-backed clinical assets that can move expertise, operating models, and value across borders. The growing alignment between Jordanian clinical excellence, GCC demand for outpatient innovation, and U.S. operational efficiencies creates a unique opportunity.
How did you choose the regions you focus on?
Jordan offers deep medical talent and a trusted clinical reputation across the Middle East. For decades, it has been a destination for medical tourism, driven by specialized physicians and strong academic institutions. Jordan’s outpatient culture and skilled workforce make it an ideal hub for innovation.
The GCC is experiencing a rapid modernization of healthcare infrastructure driven by national transformation plans. Populations are looking for outpatient care that is accessible, technologically sophisticated, and culturally aligned.
The United States contributes proven outpatient operating frameworks—particularly MSO systems, workflow design, and quality governance.
Baraka’s model brings these strengths together. It enhances access to diagnostics, specialty care, and outpatient services through cross-border collaboration. In a region shifting from hospital-centric systems to outpatient-first care models, this corridor is urgently needed.
How does Jordanian American Health (JAH) support your vision?
JAH is a foundational partner in our Jordan strategy. It combines Jordan’s clinical strengths with U.S.-inspired operational practices, demonstrating what is possible when global standards meet local expertise.
JAH has elevated outpatient delivery by embedding structured workflows, quality oversight, and modern patient-experience practices. Jordan’s skilled workforce and reputation for excellence create fertile ground for JAH’s growth—and for Jordan’s emergence as a regional outpatient hub.
With its strong history in medical tourism and academic medicine, Jordan can lead the region in outpatient innovation. JAH showcases this potential at scale.
Tell us about your pipeline.
Our pipeline spans multiple regions and reflects a commitment to building cross-border outpatient platforms backed by strong clinical governance and operational rigor.
Yasmeen Medical Campus — Amman, Jordan
Yasmeen is the anchor of our Middle East strategy. It is a comprehensive outpatient campus integrating diagnostics, specialty clinics, procedural suites, and community services. Designed to serve over 50,000 patients annually and reduce wait times by 40%, Yasmeen aims to set a new standard for outpatient delivery in Jordan. With physician-led governance and modern infrastructure, it will be a key pillar of the Jordan–GCC healthcare corridor.
EyeStudioNY — New York, USA
In the U.S., EyeStudioNY demonstrates Baraka’s ability to scale MSO-driven outpatient platforms. Now expanding to multiple locations, EyeStudioNY improves access to urgent eye care and optical services in urban communities. Its disciplined workflows, quality controls, and data-driven operations reflect the operational excellence we apply across all Baraka platforms.
U.S. MSO Platforms + Outpatient Real Estate
We are also developing medical real estate and a broader MSO infrastructure to support specialty practices. These systems include centralized operations, revenue cycle management, quality metrics, staffing support, and compliance frameworks—creating scalable, high-quality outpatient platforms.
What sets you apart? What is your USP?
Our defining differentiator is physician leadership. Healthcare is complex and deeply human, and decisions made purely through a financial lens can lead to short-termism and compromised outcomes.
Because Baraka is physician-led, our platforms are clinically sound, operationally resilient, and built for long-term value. Integrating clinical governance with disciplined MSO operations creates systems that deliver safe, efficient, and predictable care. This approach strengthens quality, reduces variability, and supports scalable growth—ultimately producing better outcomes for patients and stronger assets for investors.
What is your leadership philosophy?
Operational excellence is central to our philosophy. While many firms chase emerging trends, Baraka prioritizes durable systems, strong governance, and disciplined execution. This includes optimizing workflows, strengthening staffing models, analyzing data for quality improvement, and embedding governance structures that reduce risk.
Healthcare platforms built this way can withstand market cycles and deliver sustained value. Quick-turn financial engineering often produces temporary returns but rarely contributes lasting benefit. Baraka invests in systems that patients and communities can rely on long-term.
What are your current goals and areas of focus?
We are actively pursuing partnerships across the GCC in specialty outpatient care, diagnostics, and MSO-backed operating models. As GCC healthcare systems undergo major modernization, our physician-led, ethical, and operationally disciplined approach is well aligned with regional priorities.
Tell us about the partnerships you’re pursuing in the GCC.
The GCC is uniquely positioned to shape next-generation healthcare platforms. Its national visions, investment capabilities, and commitment to healthcare quality make it a natural partner for Baraka’s model.
One GCC family office put it well: “Baraka’s ethical model aligns perfectly with our vision for sustainable healthcare investments.”
We invite family offices, sovereign-linked investors, and health systems across the GCC to co-create platforms that elevate access, empower clinicians, and deliver long-term value for communities.
The opportunity is not simply to invest—but to build something transformative.
