Mr Ahmed installs confidence from the 1st appointment and all through the journey. So friendly and professional he has worked miracles to restore what I thought was impossible! So grateful to him and his team.
My recent visit was very good. Mr Ahmed listened to any concerns I had and addressed them. I felt happy with my care at the end of my visit
I was seen promptly, had a very easy relaxed conversation from which he could assess and confirm the issues we’d discussed previously. We then had a good discussion of the pros and cons of surgery to enable a decision I felt I was listened to and able to ask any question
I found Mr Ahmed very reassuring clear explanations and suggestions very professional. Who puts you at your ease
I was booked in to have a abdominalplasty with Mr Omar Ahmed and his team at Spire Washington. From the moment I entered the hospital everything was fantastic from the staff to the food. The procedure and recovery was explained to me in detail so I knew exactly what to expect. I was put at ease by my consultant and staff from the onset. After my operation I was looked after impeccably by every member of staff. Before I was discharged I was given all the information I needed to continue my ongoing care at home also with the support of the team as they were only at the end of the phone. My experience was faultless and would strongly recommend Mr Omar and Spire Hospital.
Surgery went well and I’m delighted with the results. Highly recommended Mr Omar Ahmed and his team .
Mr Omar Ahmed helps me with my on going facial exercisers that gives me amazing results, he explains everything you need to know and do,
