I’m Dr. Nizam Meah

I am a physician, a gastroenterologist. What I do is take care of the patients who are suffering from Gastrointestinal or digestive problems. Someone might come to be for reflux problems, someone for ulcer pain, and someone for diarrhea or constipation. Or someone might come to me just because they are perfectly healthy and need a screening for colon cancer or prevention of colon cancer.
But my story began much earlier, beyond the shores of the Atlantic or the Pacific. You see I was born in Bangladesh, well the then East Pakistan in a town nestled by the remote shores of the Bay of Bengal. Both of my parents were teachers, supporting a family of nine children with their meager salary. It is their sacrifice and inspiration that made me into what I am today.
