About Dr Ahmed Albu-Soda

I am a London-based gastroenterologist. I trained in world-class institutions such as the University of London and King's College. I was part of the multi-million prestigious Marie Curie Training Network in neurogastroenterology. My PhD, undertaken at the University of London, focused on digestive pain. My postgraduate certificate in general medical ultrasound was completed at King's College London.

I specialise in Endoscopy with over 1000 procedures per year with excellent safety and comfort scores, Ultrasound, Acid reflux testing and other digestive investigations.

In addition to my clinical work, I am involved in medical education, and I hold an honorary senior clinical lectureship at the Queen Mary University of London. I am also active in research with several publications in high-impact medical journals. I am routinely invited to speak at national and international conferences and training events as an expert in my field.

I recently had a colonoscopy at Whipps Cross Hospital under the care of Dr Amhem Albusoda. I was extremely impressed by the high standard of care provided throughout the entire process. Dr Albusoda is an outstanding clinician – calm, reassuring, and highly competent. He explained each stage of the procedure clearly and ensured that I felt informed and comfortable at all times. His professional yet approachable manner instilled complete confidence. The nursing team were also exemplary. They were attentive, compassionate, and efficient, and worked seamlessly alongside Dr Albusoda to create a reassuring and supportive environment. The procedure itself was conducted smoothly and with the utmost professionalism. I felt very well cared for from start to finish and left with complete trust in the medical team. I would highly recommend Dr Albusoda and his team to anyone requiring this procedure.

Dr Ahmed made me feel at ease before and during the procedure, and I really appreciate that given that I was very nervous. He made casual conversation as he gave me the sedation as a means of distraction, which worked. At the end of the procedure he clearly explained the outcome. He is a lovely and reassuring doctor.

I write this review as a practising NHS consultant. Dr Albu-Soda's care was exemplary. He was empathic, kind, and thorough. The whole experience - from discussing my needs with his PA, Sarah - to the clinical assessment and investigation was professional and clear. He offered his expert advice and made and wife and I feel comfortable. Thank you so much.

I’ve had a great experience with Dr Albusoda- he takes the time to discuss things with you in detail and really considers all options in a thoughtful and logical way laying out a treatment plan/route to diagnosis

Dr Abusida gave me confidence and reassurance from the very first moment of consultation, right through my procedure (colonoscopy) and in recovery. An absolute gentleman with a caring, professional and very ‘human’ side to him. I have already recommended him to friends and family with every confidence.

I would highly recommend Dr Albusoda. I consulted him regarding my gut issues that had been going on for more than a year. He diagnosed my IBS and helped me keep my symptoms undercontrol. He explained in detail how gut works and what could be causing issues. Very friendly yet professional, would certainly recommend him! Best Regards, Fatima M H
