Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

A doctor that listens to his patients
Dr. Ahmad takes the time to listen to me and discuss any concerns I have. I have been able to do virtual appointments when needed also, this has been very helpful!

Highly recommend! The bad reviews up here are to be ignored. I initially read the reviews before my visit and was a bit hesitant, however, Dr. Ahmad is a patient, intelligent, and very kind man. Dr. Ahmad listened to everything I said and made suggestions, allowing ME to decide what was best for me, VERY unlike anyone else I've ever been to. Bravo!

Totally unprofessional. Ethics are very questionable. Primary concern appears to be is his own profitability rather than what’s best for his patients. A disgrace to his profession.

This guy is the most unprofessional Doctor I've ever had the displeasure of dealing with. Lazy, slow, terrible bedside manner, rude, and doesn't help with anything when you get right down to it

He does not listen and makes you feel worse about yourself. He walks away in the middle of your sentence and the nurses do more work than he does. He stands there with this stupid look on his face and obviously only cares about how much money goes into his wallet. This man should not be a doctor and should never help another human being. Shame on you and your scam of an office. The nurses also don't know English very well and ask you the same question over and over again. Thanks for nothing!!!

Miserable, unprofessional dump. Lazy and condescending staff makes patient do all the work regarding insurance. Charges for entire visit when should have only collected deductible, then holds your money until YOU prove the claim was paid. Scam artists.

I feel he commits fraud by doing in needed tests on senior citizens just to suck Medicare dry. This explains why 90% of his patients are senior citizens & only 10% are under 65! He doesn't pay attention when the patient is speaking, he walks away from the patient before finishing up only to go into another patients room. This way he can charge you for an hour and a half visit (orcharge Medicare) instead of the normal 20 min visit!! he is a scam artist who makes you feel worse than better!DONT GO

Staff is great. The doc himself is what we call a POS. During my appointment he said I don't Generally take state aid patients. What are you to good for people who cant pay cash. Hes disrespectful and does not take the time to here about your needs. I will be getting a second opinion and be contacting my attorney. Your a doctor help people and don't discriminate on by the size of your patience wallet. Sorry i cant pay cash. Ill be informing my insurance company of you impuut about my remarks.
