Thank you Dr Ahmad for increasing my confidence. I had the pleasure of you performing 2x surgeries on me. Before my first surgery I remember being afraid of being put under and you hugged me and told me it will all be okay. After my first surgery I had a melt down you supported me through that and we sure laughed about it after. Then I had another surgery with you this time with a friend who I recommended to go through you. I remember my friend having her surgery and I fell asleep on the bed (while waiting my turn) and you knocked so hard trying to wake me up haha. But you promised me a snickers after surgery and when I come around after surgery that is the first thing I asked for :) . . Your sense of humour, your wittyness was the best.. I hope you are surrounded by cheese, cracker’s, nuts, snickers and all things you enjoy.

Condolences to your family.

You were a remarkable man.

I first met Mr Ahmed in 2023. From the first appointment, I knew I wanted him to be my surgeon. He made me very relaxed & explained every step. I particularly liked his warm personality & humour. With every appointment & follow up he was always very pleasant & always had a laugh with him. I feel so sad of his passing he was a great man. Sending love & hugs to his staff, family & friends. RIEP Mr A 💙

Mr Ahmad, you truly were a wonderful man who clearly touched the lives of many. Thank you for making me feel so at ease throughout two operations and many appointments. You always made me smile and I absolutely adored your sense of humour. You had a natural ability to make people laugh and everyone instantly relaxed in your presence. May you rest in eternal peace.

My heartfelt condolences to family and friends! I have known Sheikh since 2008. We became best friends very soon. Best friends are chosen family. They know your unspoken thoughts, your worst moments, your biggest dreams—and they love you anyway. Ours was a bond built on belly laughs, midnight chats, mutual respect, and shared silence when words weren’t needed. Almost every Thursday we go to Shanaz restaurant and talk about our theatre list and reflect and learn. He is a great teacher. Losing a best friend feels like losing a piece of your identity. This tribute is for the best friend and for our unconditional friendship. We had great work ethics, humour and trust. Though the world feels lonelier now, the friendship we shared will never fade. It shaped us. It stays with us. Always. You have a special place in my heart my dear friend. May your soul rest in peace. Siva.

I had my surgery 5 weeks ago with Mr Ahmad in Harley Street I am so grateful I found him. I will never forget how he has changed my life. I also only saw him 2 days before he past away. With his warm smile and cheeky sense of humour I will never forget it. Sending all the love ♥️ to his family friends and everyone’s lives who he has touched a man who will be missed by all. Xx

I’m still in shock, such a wonderful compassionate beautiful man. My thoughts are with his beautiful children and his partner, and all his wonderful team.
I have never met anyone as kind caring and funny. May he rest in peace.
He will always be in my thoughts. Love to his family ❤️

I was lucky enough to meet Mr Ahmad several times over the last few years, and he had the purest heart of gold 💛 his obituary is so well written and I couldn’t agree more with your lovely words. After such an awful experience with a previous clinic, he took me in with open arms, made me feel so comfortable and taught me how to trust again. I gladly told him I simply will never trust another surgeon but him - I meant it! He really was one-of-a-kind and I’m so grateful I found him. I could tell from the moment I met him that all he did was truly care for his patients and wanted the best for them. I will never forget him. Thank you so much Mr Ahmad 💛 and send all my love to his family and friends 💛

What can I say other than he was a compassionate , talented , funny,kind , stylish man.
Sat cheekily eating fruit in consults , as a Surgeon he would recommended procedures that would better your health over image, when I went into shock he stroked my hair , you always felt in safe hands and so now may he be in safe hands , Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un , you will be missed my friend.
