Mr Ahmed Hamouda

I have been a Consultant Upper GI and Bariatric surgeon for 20 years and am an expert in minimally invasive keyhole surgery for reflux, gallstones and weight gain. I practice in London and Kent which is where most of my patients hail from, although a significant number seek my help from further afield. Self-pay and insured patients are both welcome to see me as I am recognised by all the major insurers.

Apart from my extensive experience in weight loss surgery, gallbladder surgery and fundoplication, I can simply state the problem and its treatment in terms that my patients can easily understand. I believe a major part of treating a patient is reassurance and a non-judgemental manner. This is evident in the feedback I receive on Doctify, iWantGreatCare, TopDoctors and Google to name a few.

I offer keyhole gallbladder surgery for simple and complex presentations of gallstones, keyhole and open surgery for all types of hernias and fundoplication for reflux disease. I also offer multiple solutions for weight loss. My emphasis is on early recovery with day case and one night stays for the majority of my patients. The best results come from collaboration with others in the team such as anaesthetists.

I have completed over 5,000 keyhole procedures on abdominal conditions such as gallstones, reflux and for weight loss.

I lead a Consortium of seven surgeons and seven gastroenterologists at Kent private hospital which allows multi-disciplinary team working and exposure to wealth of experience.

I believe in treating patients as individuals in a holistic manner, taking stock of their lifestyles and preferences when outlining their treatment.
