Why did we establish Docspert Health ?

Prof. Hisham Mehanna

Hisham is a world-renowned head and neck cancer surgeon, working in Birmingham, UK. He has a keen interest in innovation and research, and his research has changed clinical practice globally in the field of head and neck cancer. He also has a lot experience in senior leadership and management roles, and is currently deputy pro-vice chancellor of one of the largest universities in the UK, and is the director of a large institute with over 300 academics.

Hisham is also a serial digital health entrepreneur, and is passionate about making the best healthcare available to everyone, regardless of where they live, through digital health. So, he co-founded Docspert Health, to provide second medical opinions from international medical experts in the UK, USA and Europe available to patients in the Middle East and Africa. The idea originated from his observations from the benefit, but also the difficulties and expense, that patients from the Middle East experienced when coming to consult him, as a head and neck cancer surgeon, in the UK.
