He is the most caring doctor I have ever had and also the most knowledgeable. Highly recommended.
Dr Ahmad makes it very easy to talk about health issues. Then he gives you suggestions for the treatment options, and helps you with how you want to proceed, no pressure.
Dr Ahmad is kind, he is personable. He listens and takes time to get to the root versus just addressing symptoms. I would see him again if I ever have a need for further spine care.
Wonderful doctor! He took time to explain everything to me. I never felt rushed. His entire staff is friendly and courteous.
Very nice. Very up forward. Seems like her really cared. High votes from me
I really am impressed with the fact that Dr Ahmad truly cares about his patients and he doesn't just treat them without looking at all the problems he could encounter. Thank you Dr. Ahmad.
Outstanding very professional doctor I would recommend him to anyone in need of spinal fusion. Thank you.

Dr. Ahmad patiently answered all the questions I had and throughly explained things.
Gave me the things 2 think about
