Dr Ahmed Shedid – Trigger Finger & Carpal Tunnel Surgeon

With extensive training across Egypt, Europe, and the United Kingdom, Dr Ahmed Shedid is an internationally trained Orthopaedic Hand Surgeon known for his calm, precise, and patient-centred approach. His expertise focuses on conditions affecting the hand and wrist, with a particular specialisation in carpal tunnel syndrome and trigger finger.

Dr Shedid has a strong background in hand surgery, orthopaedic assessment, and minimally invasive techniques, enabling him to diagnose and treat nerve compression and tendon-related conditions with accuracy and care. He is experienced in both non-surgical management and surgical interventions, ensuring each patient receives the most appropriate and effective treatment.

Combining a solid foundation in orthopaedic surgery with refined microsurgical skill, Dr Shedid is committed to delivering safe, reliable outcomes that restore comfort, hand function, and quality of life.

I believe plastic surgery is the perfect blend of medicine, surgery, art and geometry. The best results are always tailored and truly individual, enhancing your appearance in a natural way that makes others notice you look more refreshed, without being able to pinpoint what has changed. Your beauty should remain your secret.

    “From start to finish my experience was fantastic. Dr Ahmed & his lovely team made me feel so at ease. Aftercare is amazing too. Couldn’t recommend Signature Clinic enough. x”

    Mrs Burke

    “From initial telephone consultation to the day of surgery and follow up contact, each and every person has been professional and friendly, patiently answering any questions and putting me at ease. Dr Ahmed was lovely, gave me confidence that I’d have a great result and I am more than happy with the outcome.”

    Gillian Servet

    “Couldn’t have been happier with the whole process, I was in and out of the surgery within 1 hour with 0 complications. I was told lots of information about my recovery and the aftercare team were great. It’s now 3 months later and I could not be happier with my results. Would 10/10 recommend if you are thinking about it get it booked!”
