Patient Reviews
Oct 01, 2024
Dr. Ahmed removed my cataracts two months ago. From our first consultation through the post op follow up, he took the time to discuss all the options, what to expect from the surgery, and recovery. He was very professional and very willing to take plenty of time to answer all my questions.
