Dr. Meera Gupta
Overview
As an abdominal transplant surgeon, I perform solid organ transplants including liver, kidney, and pancreas in adults and children. I also perform general, hepatobiliary and peritoneal dialysis access surgery. The most rewarding part of my job is being there for patients through the challenges and successes of their transplant journey, getting them to full recovery, and following them as part of our Duke Transplant family for life. Our patients inspire me not only to strive for the highest quality of care through clinical/translational research and implementation science, but more importantly, to ensure a lifelong personal connection between the surgeon and the patient. There is no greater joy for me than to hear about what my patients are doing with their second lease on life after their transplant! They inspire me with their resilience, motivation, and determination to continue my work and develop strategies to help patients get through transplant, create better access to transplant, increase living donation, and ensure the best outcomes. These are just some of the many wonderful characteristics I see in my patients; and I hope to pass them along as I raise my children and teach our trainees.

Duke is where I learned surgery, was taught how to interact with patients, and began my professional training. I am returning to Duke after working at the University of Wisconsin, Madison and later Emory (Atlanta) as a transplant and hepatobiliary surgeon. I enjoy working with adults and children who need surgery of the liver and biliary tract, liver vascular surgery, or kidney transplantation.
