About Dr Ahmir Ahmad

Dr. Ahmir Ahmad is a Consultant Gastroenterologist and Specialist Endoscopist with private practice locations at OneWelbeck (London), Nuffield Health (Brentwood), Spire Hartswood (Brentwood), and St Mark’s National Bowel Hospital (Harrow). He treats a wide range of digestive conditions and performs diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy, focusing on optimising patient outcomes and promoting “gastro wellness.”

Dr. Ahmad completed his undergraduate medical training with distinction at University College London in 2010. He subsequently undertook a four-year specialist clinical and research endoscopy fellowship at St Mark’s Hospital from 2018 to 2022, training in diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy under Professor Brian Saunders. In 2023, he completed a PhD at Imperial College London, exploring efficiency in colonoscopy throughout the patient pathway, work which has influenced national practice. His research interests include high-quality colonoscopy performance, optical and AI-assisted diagnosis, and improving procedural efficiency.

He has published extensively and presented at national and international conferences. In 2024, Dr. Ahmad was elected to the British Society of Gastroenterology (BSG) Endoscopy Clinical Research Group to support endoscopy research in the UK. He co-authored the 8th edition of Cotton and Williams’ Practical Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, a key training text, and co-convened the St Mark’s Hospital Endocation webinar series, which reached a global audience of over 100 countries.

I had a most helpful and insightful first consultation with Dr Ahmed. He made very careful notes of all my symptoms and set out very clearly a plan of action including blood tests and further examinations.

I was in for a colonoscopy on Wednesday 29th of July. From the moment I entered the hospital I was kept informed of everything. Even during a slight delay I felt informed as to why it had occurred. During the procedure staff were friendly and happy to answer my questions. Additional pain killers were provided quickly. Afterwards I was given some biscuits, drinks and a full explanation from Dr Ahmad. Since the procedure I have been sore but feeling back to normal regarding initial symptoms. Thanks so much!!

Dr Ahmad was friendly and professional and very reassuring from the first moment of my consultation, taking time to explain everything. This continued on my procedure day and along with Dr Ahmad, his team at One Wellbeck were all kind and provided the support I needed when I was nervous. Everyone was really great.

I was dealt with very sympathetically and professionally by Dr Ahmad, this was over the course of three consultations and an endoscopy. Any worries I had about the treatment were unfounded and the endoscopy was a quick and painless procedure. I was quickly reassured there were no significant issues and have been discharged back to my GP. So pleased to have been under Dr Ahmad’s care.

Dr Ahmad and I were research fellows together. He is a diligent, hardworking, thoughtful and careful clinician with excellent attention to detail. Ahmir has particular expertise in the detection and characterisation of precancerous lesions in the colon and has been a pioneer in one of the most important recent studies within the UK National Bowel Cancer Screening Programme. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful and meticulous doctor.
