September 18, 2019Akuria M.Verified patient
Dr. Ahmad is an old school cardiologist. He is not open to exploring newer avenues in heart health care. The office is way over scheduled. On my last visit there was no place to sit down, I stood until I was called for my appointment. Staff is nice as well as the technicians who perform tests. Office is kinda shabby and unkempt. Would not go back.

Dr. Ahmed is always Pleasantly Professional. And...Straight forward during his result counseling sessions. I regretfully need to seek a new Cardiologist at this hour, as I will be relocating out of State. My entire 6/7 Years experience has been satisfying & referable. Thank you Dr. I Ahmed & staff/Team whom always seek to rectify all circumstantial situations during the service day.

I look forward to my visits with Dr. Ahmad. He is such an amazing doctor. Never in a rush , listens to you, takes his time to explain to you what is going on and how he is going to treat you, so patient and kind. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Ahmad. My number one Cardiologist. Wouldn't trade him for anyone else.

Very good cardiologist.very thorough.
December 8, 2017Irene V.Verified patient
The doctors I saw were good. The staff up front had no idea what they were doing. If you need a referral from them don't hold your breath. You'll have to call everyday. They'll tell you they'll fax it right over to your doctor but never do. Definitely won't be going back here again.

November 28, 2016Uche I.Verified patient
I saw him quickly, and only sat with him for about 2 minutes. Then it was over 90 minutes before I was supposed to get some blood work, and they simply could't get it together. I had to leave and reschedule another appointment. It seemed like a busy day for them, but i'm busy too and i dont expect to sit for a regular check up for more than 2 hours.
November 17, 2016Initials hidden
The front desk staff was very brusque and kept me waiting more than an hour. When I asked how long it might be they told me the doctor was eating, there were 3 patients still ahead of me and that it'd be another hour. I understanding needing to eat, but then don't schedule patients, who you know you wont see for 2 hours.
October 5, 2016David G.Verified patient
Dr. Ahmad is always pleasant, professional and caring. I always feel better after seeing him. His staff is also kind and professional at all times. Highly recommend!
More than 1 year agoToni-renee G.Verified patient
Dr. Ahmad's staff are very professional, they conducted all the appropriate tests. I received calls to follow up and remind me of appointments. I felt like I was in good hands with these professionals. I would recommend his practice for anyone experiencing any cardiological concerns.

Had a brief visit with Dr. Ahmad, so at this point I can't say much until I have a follow up appointment. He is clearly knowledgable.
I'm writing this review because I called the next day to give the Dr. some additional information about my history and was hung up on by an incredibly rude person at the front desk. I didn't hear her question, asked for clarification and she exhaled in frustration and hung up. I called to try again and the person whom I spoke with (someone else) didn't extend much courtesy or interest when I explained what had just happened. She impatiently asked me what I wanted to tell the doctor and that was that.
A doctor's office in my opinion should be a well rounded experience from staff to doctor. This was definitely not.

I'm so relieved to have met Dr. Ahmad! His staff was friendly and knowledgeable. They also helped me with my insurance. Highly recommended!
February 5, 2016Lauren C.Verified patient
Dr. Ahmad was friendly enough and seemed to be knowledgable on cardiology.
But had to wait about 2 hours for the technician to meet with me afterwards for a Stress EKG. Even with a scheduled appointment, I was the last client in the waiting room by the time the technician met with me. He was friendly, but definitely non-apologetic and uninterested in my having had to wait so long.
February 18, 2016Stefan D.Verified patient
The office staff (Natalie et. al) was very welcoming and reassured me as I informed them upon arrival that I had to make a 1:30pm meeting.
Dr. Ahmad was attentive and allowed me to ask several questions related to my condition. I felt comfortable during my entire visit, especially during the echo cardio gram exam.
Thank you for a pleasant visit.

January 2, 2016Charles M.Verified patient
Dr Ahmad is the best ever. His staff are warm, caring, and professional. He checked all of my levels, and performed a stress test immediately. Dr. Ahmad offers direct, but carting advice. I am definitely making Dr. Ahmad my primary physican
October 20, 2015Anthony B.Verified patient
I do not personally agree that a 30 minute wait is a 3-star experience. I thought the doctor was amazingly efficient, professional, and compassionate, but if I have to make an appointment to see him, I would like to see his staff ensure that I am seen at that time.
