About Dr. Meisam

A surgeon's journey across three continents

I did not become a surgeon to perform as many operations as possible. I became one to give people clear answers, and the safest possible care, in moments that feel frightening and uncertain.

I am a Swedish Board-Certified Consultant General Surgeon, certified since 2013, and I have practised across Sweden, the United States and the UAE. My training runs through Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm, Level I trauma at Penn Presbyterian Medical Center in the USA, and military surgical training with the Swedish Armed Forces, experience that taught me calm, precise judgement under pressure.

I specialise in hernias, gallbladder disease, stomach and bowel disorders, weight-loss surgery, emergency and trauma surgery, and diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy, with particular skill in advanced minimally invasive (keyhole) techniques. At American Hospital Dubai I combine Scandinavian precision with international expertise, and a simple belief that surgery should only be recommended when it truly benefits you.

“Surgery should only be recommended when it offers the greatest benefit to the patient, combining Scandinavian precision with compassionate, personalised care.”
