Dr. Ahmed performed an endoscopy and colonoscopy for my son a few weeks ago. He was very professional, and really took the time to talk with and explain everything to my son as well as to me. I saw him for an office visit yesterday- he was very thorough and helpful, and also very kind. The office staff was very friendly also. We highly recommend Dr. Ahmed to anyone in need of a gastroenterologist.
