Dr. Akram Jehad Al Rishani

Dr. Akram Jehad Al Rishani is a consultant cardiologist practising at Dubai Health in the UAE. He trained in Syria, earning his Doctor of Medicine from Damascus University in 2002, and went on to complete specialist qualifications in cardiovascular diseases through the Syrian Board of Medical Specialties in 2010 and the Arab Board in Cardiology in 2017.

Dr. Al Rishani manages a broad range of heart conditions, with particular focus on acute coronary syndromes, including heart attacks (STEMI) and complications requiring urgent intervention. He has experience with percutaneous coronary intervention (a catheter-based procedure to open blocked arteries) and has published on outcomes following these interventions, including door-to-device times and predictors of major adverse cardiac events.

He has been based at Dubai Health since 2013, bringing over two decades of medical experience to the region. He is a good choice if you need specialist care for heart attack, chest pain, or coronary artery disease, or if you require evaluation of rare cardiac conditions.
