Best experience we have ever had with a surgeon and their staff. Everything, from the first visit, to surgery, and even the follow ups after have been above and beyond all expectations. We are seen on time, always. Dr.Ahmed and her staff are knowledgeable, kind, and ensure that your voice is heard. They are not in too big of a hurry to explain things and answer questions. We trust them completely- which is a tall order as we are very cautious about surgery in general.Patient Submitted Review

Dr. Sonya Ahmed has done an excellent job on my foot. My toes were crossing over each other making it hard to walk. It was also painful. My toes are straight now, no pain and I can actually wear decent shoes now. She is very professional and has a great caring attitude toward her patients. I highly recommend her. Joann Yates

Hands down Dr Ahmed is the best doctor I have ever been to. During consultation she explained everything in detail and asked questions and actually listened to what I said and answered all my questions. It was a very complicated surgery and took 3 hours to perform. She found things that didn’t show up on an MRI and corrected those also. Hopefully I will never have to have surgery again but if I do, she will definitely be my doctor again. Thanks again for everything Dr Ahmed !Patient Submitted Review

Dr Ahmed is hands down the best foot and ankle surgeon around, she is straight to the point and doesn’t hold anything back, if your doing what she tells you to do your going to recover faster then if you try it on your own. She is a professional in every aspect. I will not see any other Dr in the area for what she specializes in. If your on time for your appointment or early even they are quick to get you seen. I have nothing bad to say about the Dr or the office other then the bathroom door is hard to open if your on crutches lolololol also the team she has working there is awesome.Patient Submitted Review

Exceptional Care at Gulf Breeze Hospital I recently underwent bunion surgery at Gulf Breeze Hospital, and I can confidently say it was an amazing experience from start to finish. Dr. Ahmed, my surgeon, was incredibly skilled and reassuring, making sure I felt comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. The support staff played a crucial role in my positive experience as well. Aimee, my nurse, was attentive and compassionate, providing excellent care and answering all my questions with patience. I felt truly cared for in her hands. In the waiting room, I had the pleasure of meeting Karl and Jill, who were nothing short of delightful. Their warm smiles and friendly conversation helped ease my nerves, making the wait much more pleasant. It’s incredible how a little kindness can make such a difference! When I woke up post-surgery, George was right there by my side. His kindness and support were so comforting during a vulnerable moment. I also want to give a special shout-out to my anesthesiologist and the OR surgical team, including Natalie, Sara, and Christina. They were not only highly professional but also incredibly warm and kind. Their care and attention made me feel safe and secure throughout the entire procedure. Overall, the entire team at Gulf Breeze Hospital demonstrated professionalism and genuine care, creating an environment that felt safe and welcoming. I highly recommend this hospital for anyone needing surgery.

I’ve had extreme pain and numbness since ankle fusion 3 yrs ago. That doctor basically said there was nothing he could do. I made an appointment with Ankle Orthopedic surgeon Dr Sonya Ahmed for a consult. She began with an EMG which found nerve damage. She performed a Tarsal Tunnel Decompression surgery. Dr Ahmed found scar tissue and severe nerve compressions which she fixed. Dr Ahmed has an outstanding bedside manner and the surgery process at Andrews Institute was the best surgical experience I have had. Dr Ahmed showed such empathy to the pain and discomfort I’ve had since breaking my ankle 4 years ago. I had to endure 2 surgeries for that break (the last one in 2020 resulted in ankle fusion). After the fusion I had numbness of toes and bottom of foot along with constant throbbing pain. Since my first visit with Dr Ahmed she continues to provide thorough compassionate treatment. She has true concern and empathy for what I’m feeling. Dr Ahmed wants to try some things that may provide long term relief from my ongoing pain. If I’m unable to gain any pain relief will consider redoing the ankle fusion. Attached is an XRay showing what Dr Ahmed was presented with. Again Dr Ahmed is 10+Patient Submitted Review

While in prep for my recent surgery, I overheard the prep nurses talking about the Doc's standards and the need for them to re-do one of their tasks because, as it currently was, was not up to her standards and they would certainly hear about it. I think that was a very big compliment to her and a confirmation to me that I had well chosen Doctor Ahmed as my Surgeon of choice. As one consults her, her passion toward and expertise in her chosen profession is obviously as intense as her compassion for her patients. Incidentally, her staff emulates all she exudes. They will hold you securely in the palm of their hand. I could not be happier with my experience here. So if you are looking for a Surgeon to trust, for someone who knows her business and for someone who, and whose staff, can help you feel good about all of it, you have found them both.Patient Submitted Review

Outstanding medical practice. Explanations of care and quality of work are well above the standard of care. I was referred here by multiple orthopedic surgeons that said my procedure was complex and beyond their scope. If I required future surgery within the scope of this practice I would not even consider going elsewhere. Dr Ahmed and her team are second to none.Patient Submitted Review

I went to this amazing women with so much pain I couldn’t take it anymore. I actually told her I didn’t care what she did to fix it. We decided on surgery and I am so glad I did it. Dr Ahmed is an amazing person and doctor. I also did my physical therapy at her office which turned out to be another good decision. Scott and Nancy are just amazing!! I can walk without pain now. I have stability when I walk now. I am so pleased and appreciate them all! I highly recommend Dr Ahmed!! She will fix you!!Patient Submitted Review

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! I went to several surgeons for their opinions and knew right away she was the perfect fit for us. From pre-operative questions, surgery and follow up, we have been very pleased! 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

Dr. Ahmed reconstructed my right achilles tendon 23 months ago. When I felt my left one pop on Tuesday afternoon I knew exactly who to call. Thankfully they were able to get me in on Thursday. I feel very good about this upcoming surgery because she and her staff go above and beyond to make sure their patients are well taken care of.Patient Submitted Review

Dr Ahmed and her team are very professional, knowledgeable, and thorough! I had surgery two weeks ago and everything went very smoothly! They also run a tight ship and their appointments run on time, which I love. I even showed up early today and they got me in and out before my scheduled appointment time! So happy I chose Dr Ahmed to help me with my Achilles issue!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

Dr. Ahmed has been AMAZING. All the Dr's before her would not listen to me about the pain I was in, she took one look at my x-rays did a physical examination and immediately knew how to fix my ankle.

Dr. Ahmed was the best! I came to her after two other doctors - one was a complete failure that cost me 5 months of running/activity and the other was smart enough to recommend me to her. I broke my fibula and she repaired it. After 5-6 months I was able to run again. She was a tough, but fair doctor. For broken bones or injuries that require surgery, you want a tough doctor that will hold you accountable. It is a sign of genuine care. I was a Division I collegiate athlete in my younger days and knowing that she came from the same athletic background gave me extreme confidence in her abilities. I will be forever grateful that she gave back running to me.Patient Submitted Review

Dr Ahmed saw me after an inconvenient and unexpected ankle injury, the very next day after it happened. Her clinic, though busy, obviously runs exceptionally efficiently and professionally.

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!!!Patient Submitted Review

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. She could relate to my discomfort (very compassionate), knew exactly how to repair the brake and explained the procedure (very knowledgeable), and made haste in scheduling me for surgery. A plate and six pins later my surgery and recovery was a success.Patient Submitted Review

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. Dr. Ahmed gave every direction direct with that tough love sort of like a mom just looking out for you is how I felt. Dr Ahmed definately knows what she is doing and is so confident in her work. She replies fast to email and always gives you a response on what to do next. If anyone has any type of foot or ankle injury I would definitely recommend going to see her. She is amazing and so is her staff!!Patient Submitted Review

After an extensive search for a Foot and Ankle Specialist, I scheduled my first appointment with Dr. Ahmed at UCSD for a flat foot that had gotten progressively worse over the years. I am a marathon runner and triathlete, and the years of mileage on my foot had finally progressed to a point where surgery was required. Not only is Dr. Ahmed an exceptional surgeon, she can relate to sports related issues and her staff is extremely professional and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Ahmed and her team.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! Thanks, Dr. Ahmed!Patient Submitted Review
