Dr. Ahmad is amazing. He is very caring and kind. He listens and answers all of my questions. My surgery was for Hiatal hernia and Fundoplication. Dr Ahmad and his team of doctors Took very good care of me before, during, and after the surgery. I had no complications. I am feeling so much better since the surgery. I am so happy I chose Dr. Ahmad and will be forever grateful to him for fixing me. I highly recommend Dr. Ahmad.
