My experience was very positive. I felt at ease and was encouraged to ask questions from our first meeting. Mr. Ahmed took time to explain and to check that I understood each step required, before the removal of BCC. I appreciated too, his caring manner and professionalism towards myself and his colleagues. Mr Ahmed's genuine wish to achieve the best outcome possible was clear in his preparations and, with his attention to detail, his experience and surgical skills, the complicated procedure was very successful. It surpassed my expectations and I'm very, very happy. Thank you.

Thank you so much for your kind words—it really means a great deal to me. I’m very pleased to hear that you felt comfortable and well-informed throughout the process. It’s always my aim to make sure patients feel at ease and fully understand each step of their treatment. I’m especially glad that you’re happy with the outcome. Your feedback about the care, attention to detail, and overall experience is truly appreciated. Wishing you all the very best moving forward, and thank you again for taking the time to share your experience.

It’s important to me that you feel fully informed, comfortable, and confident at every stage of your care. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any further questions or need any additional support.
Excellent service from the initial consultation to the final post operation consultation. I would highly recommend Mr Ahmed.

Thank you very much for your kind feedback. I’m delighted to hear that you had a positive experience from your initial consultation through to your final post-operative review. It was a pleasure to look after you. Your recommendation means a great deal to me and the team. I’m especially pleased that you felt well supported throughout your implant exchange and mastopexy journey, as continuity of care and clear communication are very important to us.

Having experienced a traumatic and disappointing surgery in 2018 for augmentation and lift after losing a lot of weight, I eventually mustered the courage to revisit surgery. Since 2018, every look in the mirror was a reminder of everything I wanted to fix and everything that went wrong. I was just unlucky, developed sepsis and the resulting capsule (and weight gain) left me with a double bubble. I was obviously apprehensive but Mr Ahmed managed my expectations from the outset, sensitively and sympathetically. I never felt judged or crazy for just wanting to be happy with my reflection. My revision surgery was complex and challenging. I had implants removed and a fresh lift. The results are perfect. Exactly what I had hoped for the first time round. I now feel confident, lighter mentally and physically, and far less self-conscious of being very heavy chested. I am far more comfortable in my clothes and can’t wait to go for a run!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and honest feedback. I truly appreciate the trust you placed in me, especially after such a difficult experience in the past. It was important to me that you felt listened to, supported, and fully informed throughout the process. Revision surgery can indeed be complex, and you approached it with great courage and realism. I am delighted to hear that you are happy with your outcome and, even more importantly, that you are feeling more comfortable and confident in yourself. That is always the ultimate goal. Wishing you every happiness as you move forward — and I hope that first run feels especially good! Warm regards, Mr Jamil Ahmed

I feel very fortunate, to have been able to have Mr Ahmed perform my recent breast reduction surgery, at Albyn hospital in Aberdeen. Mr Ahmeds knowledge, skill and care were excellent during the whole process. I would highly recommend Mr Ahmed to anyone considering this surgery - and also his whole team, including theatre staff, treatment room nurses and a 24 hour advice line, which was made available to me. My final result is so much better than I could ever have hoped for. It has been truely life changing.

It was an absolute privilege to look after you throughout your breast reduction journey at Albyn Hospital. I’m genuinely delighted to hear how pleased you are with your result and that the experience felt supportive from start to finish. Breast reduction surgery can be truly transformative, and knowing that it has made such a positive, life-changing difference to you means a great deal to me and to the whole team. I will be sure to pass on your lovely comments to our theatre staff, treatment room nurses and the team who support the 24-hour advice line — they all play an important role in patient care. Thank you again for your trust and recommendation. Wishing you continued confidence and happiness in your result.
I cannot overstate how positive my whole experience with Dr Ahmed has been from consultation through to post operative care. I would recommend him to anyone who could benefit from his expertise.

Thank you very much for your kind words. I’m delighted to hear that you had such a positive experience throughout, from the initial consultation to your post-operative care. It’s always my aim to make patients feel supported and well cared for at every stage, and I really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.
I had the ear pinnoplasty surgery to reduce the appearance of my ears sticking out and it has changed my life! Such a small thing was having such a major affect on me and having the surgery was just what I needed. The care in the hospital was fab and the healing process was far quicker than imagined. Couldn’t be happier!

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this. I’m really pleased to hear how positive an impact the surgery has had for you — it’s lovely to know it’s made such a difference to your confidence and day-to-day life. I’m also glad the hospital care and recovery were better than you expected. Wishing you all the very best going forward, and thank you again for such kind feedback.
I had a breast enlargement done by Mr Ahmed back in October. I was very happy with the result and quite impressed by the care and attention received through all stages of the process, from start to end. Mr Ahmed has a very calm and reassuring way of explaining everything and I completely trusted him and the team he works with. I would definitely recommend Mr Ahmed and I am very grateful to him for the excellent job he has done for me and the care he took of me during the hospital stay (I had the surgery done one day and the next day I was back home). Thank you Mr Ahmed.

Thank you very much for your kind and thoughtful feedback. I’m delighted to hear that you were happy with the result of your surgery and that you felt well cared for throughout the entire process. It’s especially reassuring to know that you felt comfortable, well informed, and able to place your trust in both myself and the team — that is always our aim. I’m also pleased that your hospital stay and recovery went smoothly. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience and for your recommendation. It truly means a great deal. With best wishes, Jamil Ahmed
