Really enjoyed my first visit with the doctor. It was clear, concise, and straight to the point ( with a bit of banter in between) really enjoyed the service.
Loved the staff and the doc. Professsional by very human. Acknowledged my issues, history, questions etc instead of solely relying on a cold chart. Haven’t had to find a new pcp in ages that I truly counted on for a complicated and difficult medical history, and was so grateful for dr Ahmed. Thank you!

Waited a while to gather my thoughts. I don’t think I would recommend any woman with PCOS to bring up their issues with Dr Ahmed. He may be fine in his primary craft, but for him to recommend me to gastric sleeve surgery just based on my weight, and saying I don’t need to see another doctor other than him for my PCOS is quite disappointing. PCOS comes with hormonal issues and insulin resistance. Yes, I may not be at the correct weight at the moment, but to be recommended for gastric sleeve is not going to solve my issues. My main priority is my health - just having a weight loss surgery is not going to solve my PCOS. I wish he was more open to the overall health of his patients and sometimes that’s knowing that not just a primary doctor can solve the issues and sometimes it’s great to have other opinions weigh in. I will be looking for another doctor as gastric sleeve is not the answer for me. As well as I’d rather find a doctor that doesn’t just assume to what I’m doing

Stamford Health at Norfolk was a great experience. Front desk was kind and friendly. Nurse was articulate and informative. Doctor was patient. Very informative with questions.
