About

After qualifying with distinction from Imperial College London, Mr Rahman’s surgical training across the Wessex region culminated in a highly competitive Royal College of Surgeons Senior Fellowship in Robotic Upper GI Surgery.

Today, he manages a high volume of complex emergency and elective cases within the NHS.

In his private practice at the Wessex Nuffield Hospital, Mr Rahman combines this extensive clinical experience with his background in surgical data science. He offers an evidence-based, highly analytical approach to routine and complex general surgery.

Whether you are seeking a rapid-recovery hernia repair or a laparoscopic gallbladder removal, his focus is on shared decision-making, transparent risk assessment, and precise surgical execution.

He welcomes both insured and self-paying patients.
