Mr. Mudussar Ahmad

Written by a NHS patient at Queen's Hospital

I met Dr. Ahmad through a referral from my hematologist because I was having severe avascular necrosis of the left hip, which I had lived with for nineteen years, and had started significantly affecting my day-to-day activities to the extent that I couldn't go out when needed or even sleep well due to excessive pain. Pre-surgery, Dr. Ahmad took his time to explain the surgery process to me before fixing a date and kept on asking me if I understood what he was saying and if I had any questions to ask him concerning the surgery. Dr Ahmad and his team made me feel I was in safe hands before the surgery, and that made me hopeful the surgery would be a success in spite of sickle cell. And the surgery was indeed a success. And post-surgery, I was promptly attended to if I had any complaints. He made sure the surgery site was well looked after until it healed up, and I was able to walk pain-free. Overall, I am glad I did the surgery, and I am thankful to Mr Ahmad and his team for a job well done.

friendly dr explained about procedure and able to give a prompt appointment for surgery which suited me. combined professionalism with accessibility. able to reduce my fears of surgery, and awake after spinal this was not uncomfortable but quite interesting.. though I would have liked a ceiling mirror so I could have watched the whole thing. (not his fault) I was very rapidly mobile, indeed supported the junior doctor strike a few days after surgery, at the local NHS hospital, and walked from parking with crutches. Been able to walk around area where I live and to visit family for two or three weeks now, carrying a stick in my bag in case tired and not using the crutches. Good result, no infection and noticed on my phone had done 10000 steps on a couple of days by 5 weeks. I hadn't expected, with such good days, to have have various night pains up and down leg which woke me, though thinking about it, there is bound to have been some pressure on nerves during the procedure, taking a while to settle. At no stage had I weakness in any muscles.

I was initially concerned about the procedure that I was scheduled to undergo; however, I met Mr Ahmad and I happened to be his first patient at the hospital on his first day there. After speaking with Mr Ahmad, he made me feel safe and reassured. He explained the procedure in its entirety and made me feel relieved that he would be carrying out the operation. I am pleased with the result of the operation, and the whole process.

Having been in agony with knee pain for many years, I was delighted when Mr Mudussar Ahmad accepted me for complex knee replacement surgery. I have a high body mass index and had already been refused to be seen in a local private hospital. From our first meeting. Mr Ahmad was reassuring, professional and friendly explaining everything in a clear and understandable manner so I knew the potential difficulties of the post-surgery recovery. Mr Ahmad instilled confidence as a caring and kind professional with an understanding of the pain I was in. Post surgery, Mr Ahmad came again to talk to me in a calm and kind manner though he had been in theatre all day. The surgical scar is very neat and tidy. I’m delighted to say my recovery has been steady and without any complications. I’m committed to continue to exercise and walk and everyday is an improvement. I will be forever grateful for the belief Mr Ahmad had in me though I had a high BMI. I would recommend this surgeon for his professional and personable approach. I also wouldn’t hesitate to say that any new medic could learn a lot from him. I will be returning at some stage to have my other knee attended to and will wait for Mr Ahmad to be available.
