General Surgery and Emergency Surgery

General surgeons are highly specialized physicians that perform surgery on the abdominal region of the body, from the esophagus and upper abdominal area to the small and large (colon) intestine at the lower end.

While general surgeons have significant training in the surgical management of all conditions in the abdominal area, most will choose to practice within a few subspecialties such as bariatric (weight loss) surgery, hernia repair and surgery for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux or GORD.

Common procedures performed by Mr Ahmed include:

• Simple lumps and bumps removal
• Cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal)
• Hernia repair, abdominal wall reconstruction and rectus diastasis / divarification repair
• Anti-Reflux Surgery
• LINX Device for GORD
• Bariatric surgery (for the management of obesity)
• Emergency Surgery (abscess drainage, closing lacerations, appendicectomy, perforated ulcers, bowel blockage removal, etc…)

Mr. Ahmed is highly skilled in general surgery and has completed advanced training in minimally invasive techniques. Further, with many thousands of procedures performed, Mr. Ahmed is one of the most experienced surgeons in the world.

This allows most patients to experience a smooth and swift recovery with lowered risk of infection, less blood loss, a shorter hospital stay and generally quicker recovery thenthose undergoing a traditional open procedure.
