Dr greeted me himself not the nurse. He examined me quickly, however in his office we went in detail about all of my issues, not the nurse. He did it all. He was fast asking questions but I was glad he was listening. To me he is great if you want an issue resolved quickly see him. He set me up for a ct scan same day and when I had the test done, within 2 hours i had results. I am super happy with him, had never seen anyone act so quickly with my issues.

Unfortunately my appt w Dr. Ahdoot was one of the worst I’ve had in a while. He would not let me speak unless I was answering a question he asked (like, literally cut me off multiple times to get me to stop talking) and failed to give me his perspective on any of my symptoms or why he was ordering certain follow-up tests to be done. I came in regarding a matter I was super anxious about and left his office with no additional information or peace of mind. As a result, I’ll be seeing another doctor in a few days which means an additional copay. It was truly baffling. If you value being heard by a doctor, I would look elsewhere.
I really liked this doctor's bedside manner. He was very knowledgeable and caring. He helped me resolve my issue and I would definitely recommend him.
