I have had two visits with Dr. Ahmad with no wait time at all!! She is nice as well as Professional. Very helpful , and gives you undivided attention and no feeling of trying to rush you out the door.
August 24, 2016Michael P.Verified patient
Dr. Ahmad was very thorough in trying to understand together what sleep issues I might have. She took her time in asking me specific questions about my sleep issues, and asked me questions I probably would have forgotten to mention had she not brought them up. I did not feel rushed and felt it was a smooth consultation.

I had a very pleasant experience with this sleep doctor. She was able to understand my need to get a new CPAP machine and recommended options accordingly. They are also a DME so they can get me the equipment directly instead of going through another DME like Apria (horrible). I am writing this review after having seen this doctor and after performing a sleep study in their sleep lab. Highly recommended.

Very friendly and knowledgeable Dr who took the time to answer all of my questions. Staff was friendly and helpful too. Was seen in about 5 minutes. Only minor downer was having to fill out insurance information that had been submitted already on ZocDoc.

Visit was good, however I was asked a majority of questions I already answered online. Apparently all of the data submitted online didn't get to the doctor. Why is that?
