About Mr Ahmed Othman – Consultant Cardiac & Aortic Surgeon

Mr Ahmed Othman

Consultant Cardiac & Aortic Surgeon

A Career Committed to Surgical Precision

Mr Ahmed Othman is a Consultant Cardiac and Aortic Surgeon with over twenty years’ experience in complex cardiovascular surgery. He practises at Liverpool Heart & Chest Hospital and offers private consultation and surgical treatment for patients seeking specialist assessment, including complex and re-operative cases.

His clinical practice includes highly specialised and technically demanding procedures undertaken in a limited number of centres internationally. He receives referrals for complex aortic and valve conditions from cardiologists across the UK and overseas, and sees patients who travel to the UK for specialist care.

He has developed his experience across internationally recognised cardiac centres, including the Aswan Heart Centre, the Cleveland Clinic, and Royal Brompton & Harefield. Working within these environments has contributed to a careful and considered approach to complex cardiac and aortic surgery, with particular emphasis on judgement, planning, and long-term treatment strategy.

A central part of his practice is ensuring that complex heart surgery is approached not only with technical precision, but with time, clarity, and careful explanation — so patients understand their condition and feel confident in the decisions made about their treatment.

Surgical Precision. Individualised Care.

“Surgical precision must be matched by careful judgement and clear communication — no two patients, or operations, are the same.”

01 Structured Decision-Making

Decisions around complex cardiac and aortic conditions are made in a structured way, grounded in clinical evidence and careful assessment. Each recommendation reflects a clear understanding of the condition, the available options, and the most appropriate course of action.

02 Individualised Care

Each patient’s condition, anatomy, and circumstances are considered carefully. Treatment is tailored to the individual, rather than following a standardised approach.

03 Long-Term Strategy

Follow-up forms an integral part of care for all patients. Where appropriate, treatment is planned as part of a longer-term strategy, taking into account how a condition may evolve over time and the timing of any future intervention.

Arranging a Consultation

Consultations are unhurried and focused on clarity. Patients are supported in understanding their condition and in making informed decisions, with guidance that reflects both clinical expertise and individual circumstances.
