Mr Ahmed Oliemy is a consultant thoracic surgeon specialising in minimally invasive and robotic thoracic surgery. His clinical practice focuses on the diagnosis and surgical management of lung and chest conditions, with a strong emphasis on advanced keyhole techniques that support faster recovery and improved patient outcomes.

He chose thoracic surgery at a time when the specialty was rapidly evolving, particularly with the development of minimally invasive approaches. From early in his training, he was drawn to innovation and has since built his practice around endoscopic and robotic-assisted surgery. In private practice, he is able to offer patients access to advanced diagnostic tools, a wider range of surgical options and shorter waiting times, supporting timely and personalised care.

Patients commonly present with symptoms such as persistent cough, chest pain or coughing up blood, all of which require prompt medical assessment. While many thoracic conditions can be managed without surgery, Mr Oliemy provides surgical expertise for cases where intervention is needed. He also treats patients with chest wall deformities who experience functional limitations or symptoms affecting daily life and physical activity.

His practice includes both diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Diagnostic work includes bronchoscopy for airway assessment and biopsy, as well as cervical mediastinoscopy for lymph node sampling. Therapeutically, he performs minimally invasive surgery for lung and chest tumours using video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and robotic techniques. He also offers specialist surgical treatment for thoracic endometriosis, chest wall deformities such as pectus excavatum, and conditions such as excessive sweating and blushing.

Mr Oliemy’s sub-specialist interests include chest wall deformity surgery, thoracic endometriosis, surgical management of hyperhidrosis and blushing, and lung cancer treatment, particularly in the context of smoking-related lung disease. His approach combines technical precision with clear communication, helping patients understand their diagnosis, treatment options and expected outcomes.

Across his practice, he is committed to delivering high-quality, patient-centred thoracic care, using modern surgical techniques to achieve effective results while minimising disruption to patients’ lives.
