Dugald Stewart (December 5, 1862 – November 7, 1932) was a Canadian physician and politician, who served as a member of the Canadian House of Commons from 1911 to 1917.

Born in Upper Musquodoboit, Nova Scotia, the son of John Sprott Stewart and Sarah J. Archibald, Stewart was educated at Pictou Academy and Dalhousie College, receiving a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1886. Stewart was principal of Shelburne County Academy from 1897 to 1898. He then studied medicine at the New York University School of Medicine, receiving an M.D. in 1892. After graduating, he settled in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia and started a medical practice.

He was elected to the Town Council of Bridgewater in 1901 and was mayor for four successive terms from 1907 to 1910.
