About
Mr Saqib Rahman is a Consultant General Surgeon at University Hospital Southampton, one of the UK’s leading teaching hospitals, and provides specialist private care at the Wessex Nuffield Hospital. His private practice focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of gallstone disease and abdominal wall hernias, using modern minimally invasive surgical techniques where appropriate. His approach is guided by careful clinical assessment and evidence-based decision making, recommending surgery only when it is clearly the most appropriate option for a patient’s individual condition, lifestyle and risk profile.
Mr Rahman graduated with distinction from Imperial College London in 2009. He completed his higher surgical training across the Wessex region, gaining broad experience in general and emergency surgery. Following completion of his specialist training, he undertook a highly competitive Royal College of Surgeons Senior Fellowship in Robotic Upper Gastrointestinal Surgery, where he further developed advanced skills in minimally invasive and robotic surgical techniques.
As a substantive NHS Consultant, Mr Rahman manages a high volume of complex emergency and elective surgical cases. This extensive clinical experience informs his private practice, allowing him to deliver safe and carefully considered surgical care for patients requiring procedures such as gallbladder removal or hernia repair.
Alongside his clinical work, Mr Rahman has a strong academic interest in surgical outcomes and healthcare data. In 2021 he completed a PhD in Cancer Sciences with a focus on machine learning at the University of Southampton. His research explored the use of artificial intelligence to improve the prediction of surgical outcomes. During this time he worked closely with the National Oesophagogastric Cancer Audit, analysing data from hospital trusts across England to help establish national standards of care in cancer surgery.
