Very professional and knowledgeable
Dr. Ammar
Great provider
Friendly but very professional. It gives you confidence that you've chosen the right doctor.
On time, pleasant and talked me through the procedure.
Great doctor. Very organized
Dr. Ammar was very caring, concerned and supportive. He made me feel as if he really cared about my pain and was interested in helping me get well. I thank God for him.
Awesome experience, best medical practice experience, regarding my spine/back, I’ve ever had! Dr. Ammar and his PA provided great knowledge of my problems no one else ever has, these past 25 years.
Good experience. He answered all my questions..
waiting 90 minutes pass my scheduled appt time is unacceptable. I don’t care how good the doctor. Is. The Dr needs to be aware that he is way behind. He should at least acknowledge this to his patients.
