The London Osteoporosis Clinic aims to work with patients, healthcare providers, voluntary sectors, and businesses to eradicate osteoporosis-related fractures. Outside of his professional life, Dr Mahmud has a keen interest in the arts and enjoys sports, particularly tennis and running. He has also contributed to charitable causes, having served as a Trustee for Great Causes, a charity dedicated to funding cataract operations in developing countries.

Dr Mahmud's commitment to his field and his patients has made him a leading figure in osteoporosis care since his appointment. His work continues to make a significant impact on the lives of those affected by this condition.
