"seems like a great doctor at the top of his profession. he looked over my files and medical history before my appointment and had a plan of action at the time of our meeting. he was very direct when telling me that he would be immediately referring me over to a colleague as my situation called for a doctor specialized in a different area of medicine. that office contacted me with an appointment for the very next day at Oncology so i can say that he doesn’t mess around and is truly concerned with the health and well-being of anyone who comes through his door."

Coming to Dr. Ahmed was a total 180 from that situation. He is extremely knowledgable, proactive and caring. He called me multiple times after my colonoscopy to see how I was doing. My former GI never called once. Dr. Ahmed is a true medical professional to the highest degree. From the time of my colonoscopy to getting my medication was a single day. It helped instantly.

"The staff was nice and the wait in his office was the standard (new patient). They were not slow or rude at all. I was seen by the doctor in less than 10 min.
Dr. Ahmed was so friendly and full of high energy when I first saw him that I immediately told him that I loved his energy when he walked in. He didn't come in the room making you feel like you were a chore like some doctors do.
He listened to me and took notes and allowed me to get out all of my concerns without me feeling rushed. Then he explained everything in detail to me which was a plus because it shows that he takes his time in ensuring that I understood how everything worked within my body. I will absolutely keep going to him for my needs. He is great."
"Dr. Ahmed is very professional and knowledgeable! I would definitely recommend him!"
"I'm sure we've all run into doctors that act too business like and impersonal with us. You know the type, the ones that seem like they don't really care about you. They seem aloof, detached, distracted, rushed, and like they want to give you as little time as possible during your visit, making you feel like you're just another insignificant patient in their hectic and overbooked day. Well look no further, because Dr Ahmed is the complete opposite of all that. If you want a gastroenterologist that treats you well, listens when you talk, maintains eye contact, acts like nothing else in his office matters but you, and truly acts like he cares about his patients, make your appointment right now."

He was able to show me on a giant “iPad” hanging on the wall exactly what the procedures entailed. Also where and what he was going to be looking for. He asked me if I had any questions before I left and I had none.

"The staff was very friendly. Dr. Persley was highly recommended and I saw why. She is very thorough and diagnosed a problem I had been dealing with for many months by running a test.

Now I am on the road to recovery. I truly appreciate her for that."
