About me
Mr Jawad Ahmad is an internationally recognised consultant surgeon with over 25 years of experience in liver, pancreas, gallbladder, bile duct and hernia surgery.
He is one of the UK's leading specialists in robotic and laparoscopic (keyhole) hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery, offering patients advanced treatments with faster recovery, less pain and excellent outcomes.
Mr Ahmad has been a Consultant Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic (HPB) Surgeon at University Hospital Coventry and Warwickshire since 2015, where he pioneered robotic HPB surgery in 2018. He was the first UK Robotic HPB Proctor and has since trained over 100 consultant surgeons from the UK and Europe. He has also helped establish 17 out of 23 robotic HPB centres across England, making him one of the most influential figures in the field. Currently he is the only "Platinum level" robotic surgery trainer in the UK and Europe.
Recognised globally for his innovation and expertise, Mr Ahmad was honoured as �the father of robotic HPB surgery in the UK� at the 2025 International Robotic HPB Conference. He regularly lectures around the world and continues to lead advances in robotic and minimally invasive cancer surgery.
His surgical outcomes are better than the national average as published in the National HES database, and his patients benefit from personalised and compassionate care tailored to their individual needs.
In addition to his clinical work, Mr Ahmad is a Sub-Editor of the Journal of Robotic Surgery, an Associate Professor at the University of Warwick and a Fellowship Examiner for the Royal College of Surgeons. He has published extensively and continues to contribute to groundbreaking research in early cancer detection and bile duct injury prevention.
Mr Ahmad welcomes private patients and NHS-referred patients from across the UK. If you do not have private medical insurance, you can ask your GP or consultant to make a named NHS referral to Mr Ahmad.
Patients interested in robotic surgery for pancreatic, liver or bile duct cancer may also request a named referral. Mr Ahmad can assess them in his NHS clinic and, where robotic surgery is clinically appropriate, offer treatment through the NHS at no cost to the patient. All referrals and treatments remain subject to standard NHS eligibility, commissioning and clinical assessment requirements.
