Patient Reviews
Aug 24, 2023
Dr. Ahmad answered many of my questions, reviewed the supplements I take on a daily basis, and assured me. I felt I was being heard and listening to him explain the disease and how we should work on adjusting my levels with the appropriate dosage. He put my mind at ease with his reassuring demeanor that put me at ease. I highly recommend Dr. Ahmad - I had to wait 3 months to see him, but it was well worth the wait!
