Very thorough, patient, knowledgeable and friendly. My son (17 y/o) was seen by Dr. Ahmed for an ankle injury. Her enthusiasm and concern for his plan of care was encouraging to have on an uncertain journey to healing. This is important when your child is a very active kid & athlete.

Outstanding medical practice. Explanations of care and quality of work are well above the standard of care.

Seriously love Dr Ahmed!! She operated on one of my son’s feet already and she will be the only one we let operate on his other foot!

Very knowledgeable, caring, she goes above and beyond! ♥️Patient Submitted Review

There just aren't enough synonyms for fantastic to make my post original. I agree with every glowing and positive review of Dr. Ahmed. I have learned over the years that often the degree of pain after surgery is commensurate with the skill of the surgeon. After a bone graft and joint fusion of my husband's big toe (which we had been told by a relative was going to be a very painful recovery) he took exactly one pain pill and that was taken just to ensure he wouldn't experience pain during the first night post surgery. Not only is Dr.Ahmed an exceptional surgeon she is also a delightful person who listens, is easy to talk to and demonstrates such a caring spirit as to make an appointment with her an enjoyable experience. Jason is a joy as well. It's obvious how much he respects her and enjoys working for her.Patient Submitted Review

Wow!!! Dr. Ahmed and the staff at Nilssen Orthopedics are awesome! From the friendly people at the front desk to the in house imaging, and great physical therapy. This business is built to take care of patients. I was a little overwhelmed when the ER doc's said they would need to pin and plate a broken bone in my foot. It was very difficult to find a good foot doctor for a second opinion. The wait times were either excessive or the doctors reputations a bit questionable. Thanks to a good friend who's a nurse, recommended Dr. Ahmed. She had done her foot surgery, and she was very happy. So I get to see the doc in two business days, they x-ray my foot, she reviews it and says the nature of the break should heal well on its own. We can operate if we need too, but let's see how it does. 5 minutes to check in, 5 minutes for x-rays and 20 minutes face time with Dr. Ahmed. Now that's efficient. Nilssen Orthopedics is a lean and mean independent business. No corporate overhead telling doctors what to treat or how to treat it - just to make more money. Dr. Ahmed focuses on the patient and does whats best for you, not corporate. How refreshing. My foot healed fine on its own with her supervision. Their PT folks showed me what to do, and not do, to supplement a return to normal. At 61 years of age and a major auto immune disorder, surgery would have opened the door to all sorts of problems for me. I'm thankful to Dr. Ahmed and her folks for smart decisions and great care. If I should ever need foot or ankle surgery, or just good advise, Dr. Ahmed and the folks at Nilssen Orthopedics in Pensacola is my place to go. Highly recommend!Patient Submitted Review

I’ve been seeing Dr. Ahmed for almost 3 years now. She is a phenomenal doctor and surgeon. To me, she’s the best of the best! She basically reconstructed both of my feet over the past 2 years due to the damage that severe arthritis has caused. She is extremely thorough and sympathetic! I have referred several of my friends to her and will continue to do so! I can’t say enough positive things about her and her staff. Everyone that I’ve ever come in contact with at Dr. Ahmed’s office from the front desk staff, the X-ray technician, Dr. Ahmed’s nurse, and of course I can’t leave out Justin who has put my cast on after both of my surgeries is extremely friendly and professional. I’m forever grateful for finding Dr. Ahmed and her team!Patient Submitted Review

I am a recently retired orthopedic surgeon with 30 years of experience in treating patients as well as a patient with severe rheumatoid arthritis. Thus I believe I have a pretty good idea of what an ideal physician should be. Honestly, and without reservation I vacancy comfortably place Dr Ahmed in that category. She is clearly exceptionally intelligent, learned, skilled and quite honestly talented. Additionally she demonstrates great compassion and empathy for her patients. Phenomenal!Patient Submitted Review

I would not hesitate recommending Dr. Ahmed's services to anyone. I had a broken ankle that needed surgery, with a plate and six pens inserted for support to my bones. Dr. Ahmed was very compassionate, in that, she could relate to my pain because she had the same injury herself. She was positive, knowledgeable, and confident. I easily put my trust in Dr. Ahmed, with that stated, my surgery and recovery was a success!!!

I was referred to Dr. Ahmed when I had broken my right ankle. As you can imagine my first appointment with her was an emergency and I was in pain. The type of brake that I had, Dr. Ahmed also had.

I placed the upmost trust/respect in Dr. Amed. I know something about this after being hit by a car on my motorcycle, and it wiping out my leg and ankle. I've had maybe lost count 12-14 surgeries on my ankle including a STAR implant. I was fortunate for many great surgeons but Dr. Amed tops when looking at the entire experience though eval, surgery and now recovery. I wanted a proficient female doctor in ortho/sports med. I was an intercollegiate athlete essential to keep something of my abilityPatient Submitted Review

Dr. Ahmed was nothing but exceptional! I had unfortunately suffered from a Jones fracture, which is a fracture on the 5th metatarsal and it required surgery.

Unbelievable!! She is nothing short of a walking miracle. She was amazing not only in surgery but my follow up as well. I was extremely lucky to have the opportunity to have her and her staff work on me. I would gladly explain my experience with anyone that has any doubts. I feel horrible cause I can't remember everyone on her crew. I believe one was Dr Dobson? He set my ankle. Amazing as well!! I'm drawing a blank on the third Dr that was on my surgery. Awesome as well. All three check on me on my perop. Can't say enough about Dr Ahmed and her crew. If you don't go with her good luck.Patient Submitted Review

Dr. Ahmed told me at the outset that she discovered early on that she had a "knack" for foot and ankle orthopedic issues. I found that she has more than that, she is close to being a miracle worker. She is very intuitive in her skill; combined with the science of her profession and a phenomenal dedication to her practice, she saved me from an amputation! Simply put, she applied her skills and did what others did not know to do in my case and did it quickly! I am no less than amazed and extremely appreciative of her talent!
