I had an excellent experience with this Mr Ahmed from my first consultation through my recovery. He took the time to explain the procedure clearly, answered all of my questions with patience, and made me feel comfortable and confident every step of the way. The surgery went smoothly, and the care I received before and after the procedure was outstanding. Mr Ahmed was professional, compassionate, and genuinely attentive to my concerns. My recovery has been better than I expected, and I'm very pleased with the outcome. I highly recommend Mr Ahmed to anyone looking for exceptional skill, clear communication, and compassionate care. I'm truly grateful for the excellent treatment I received with my surgery and previous surgery I’ve had.

Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a real pleasure to look after you, and I'm delighted to hear that you felt well supported throughout your treatment and recovery. I'm pleased that everything went smoothly and that you're happy with the outcome. It's always important to me that my patients feel informed, comfortable and confident at every stage, so it's lovely to know that was your experience.

After having five C-sections and breastfeeding my children, my body had changed significantly. I work out regularly and live a healthy lifestyle, but I knew that no amount of diet or exercise was ever going to improve the appearance of my abdomen or breasts. Making the decision to have surgery wasn’t something I took lightly, and I spent a long time researching the right surgeon. From my very first consultation with Mr Ahmed, I knew I was in safe hands. He immediately put me at ease and took the time to explain everything in detail. He talked me through the procedure, the recovery, the risks, and what I could realistically expect from my results. I never felt rushed, and every question I had was answered, which gave me complete confidence in my decision. I underwent an abdominoplasty with muscle repair, liposuction, and breast augmentation with implants, and I can honestly say the results have exceeded all of my expectations. I’m absolutely delighted. Not only has the surgery transformed my body, but it has also given me a huge boost in confidence. I finally feel like my outside reflects how hard I’ve worked to stay fit and healthy. I also can’t thank everyone at Albyn Hospital enough. Every single member of the team was amazing from start to finish. The care I received before surgery, during my stay, and throughout my recovery was outstanding. Everyone was so kind, caring, professional, and reassuring, making what could have been a very daunting experience feel so much easier. A huge thank you to Mr Ahmed and the entire team at Albyn Hospital. I am incredibly grateful ...
Read moreI was made very comfortable and listened to with any anxiety worries i had, the staff and Doctor were just fantastic, im recommending to everyone, brilliant experience and hospital, looking forward to my next procedure.

Thank you so much for your kind feedback. It was a pleasure to look after you. I'm delighted to hear that you felt comfortable, listened to, and well supported throughout your treatment. Helping patients feel at ease and addressing any concerns is very important to us, so it's wonderful to know that both the team and I were able to make your experience a positive one. Your recommendation means a great deal to us, and I will be sure to share your lovely comments with the staff. We look forward to seeing you again and taking equally good care of you at your next procedure.
I had treatment for Dupuytrens Contracture (Viking Hands). The fingers on both hands had curled over to the point where it was becoming difficult to carry out hobbies such as bowling and playing a musical instrument. Mr Ahmed carried out an operation to remove fascia around the tendons and enable the fingers to straighten, This was carried out under local anaesthetic, where I was awake and could listen to my favourite music. The operation was painless and I was treated as a day patient. Supported by physiotherapy, I now have full use of both hands and no side effects and can resume hobbies as normal

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I am delighted to hear that your treatment for Dupuytren’s contracture has been successful and that you have regained full function in both hands. It is particularly rewarding to know that you are now able to return to the activities you enjoy, including bowling and playing your musical instrument. Our aim is always to make surgery as comfortable and stress-free as possible, so I am pleased that you found the procedure under local anaesthetic to be painless and that you felt relaxed throughout. I am also grateful for your recognition of the important contribution made by our hand therapy team, whose support is often key to achieving the best possible outcome. Thank you again for your kind comments and for placing your trust in my care. I wish you many years of enjoyment with your restored hand function. Best wishes, Mr Jamil Ahmed Consultant Plastic and Hand Surgeon

I cannot recommend Dr. Jamil Ahmed highly enough. From my very first consultation through to my recent breast augmentation surgery and aftercare, he has been absolutely exceptional. Choosing to undergo surgery is a huge decision, and naturally I had many questions and emotions throughout the process. Dr. Ahmed immediately put me at ease with his warmth, professionalism, and genuine compassion. He took the time to listen carefully to exactly what I wanted to achieve, answered every question honestly and thoroughly, and made me feel completely confident in my decision. What truly sets Dr. Ahmed apart is the way he treats his patients. I never once felt like I was “just another patient.” He made me feel valued, understood, and cared for every step of the way. His friendly nature, kindness, and reassurance helped ease any nerves I had, and I always felt that my best interests were his priority. I am absolutely thrilled with the results of my breast augmentation. Dr. Ahmed has exceeded all of my expectations, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. His skill, attention to detail, and dedication to achieving the very best results are evident in his work. I am incredibly grateful for the care I received from Dr. Ahmed and his team, and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone considering cosmetic surgery. If I ever decide to have any further procedures in the future, there is no doubt that Dr. Ahmed will be the only surgeon I trust. Thank you, Dr. Ahmed, for your outstanding care, professionalism, and for helping me feel more confident and happy in myself. You truly...

Overall my experience at Albyn was good. There was a delay in getting my procedure by two days due to the previous surgery taking longer than expected, but Mr Ahmed came in on his day off to ensure I didn’t need to wait over a month for my surgery, which was really appreciated. I am very happy with my results, and the aftercare both from Mr Ahmed who came to see me twice while I was still in hospital and called a couple of times when I was home, but also all the medical staff who were very attentive, and looked after me well during my stay, which was extended by an extra night due to drainage issues.

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience. I appreciate your understanding regarding the short delay to your procedure. Unfortunately, surgical timings can occasionally be affected by unforeseen circumstances, but I was pleased that we were able to proceed without you having to wait for another operating date. I am delighted to hear that you are happy with your results and that you felt well looked after throughout your stay. Providing good care before, during and after surgery is very important to me, and I am grateful for your kind comments about the support you received from both myself and the nursing and medical staff at Albyn Hospital. Thank you also for acknowledging the additional care provided during your extended stay. I will ensure that your feedback is shared with the wider team, who will be pleased to know that their efforts were appreciated. I wish you continued healing and all the very best for the future. Kind regards, Mr Jamil Ahmed Consultant Plastic Surgeon
