During his CMO tenure, O'Neal advanced clinical quality, improved efficiency in the hospital medicine program, and supported strategic expansion across northeast Louisiana. He has led key committees including ICU, trauma, stroke, and hospitalist service line, and serves as assistant professor of internal medicine at LSU Health Shreveport.

The 233-bed Monroe facility is northeast Louisiana's first Level III Trauma Center and recently added the 7th Street Multispecialty Clinic, McMillan Multispecialty Clinic, HawkHealth at ULM, emergency department renovations, a new helipad, and the future Monroe Cancer Center.
