Patient Reviews
Aug 19, 2024
Dr Ammar came to see me before my actual colonoscopy, answered my questions and made me very comfortable-the same after the procedure. Due to me being anxious about my biopsy results, called me on a Sunday and discussed the report in detail. How many doctors go out of their way on the weekend to get in touch with you?? Not many. But Dr Amman did. He’s a keeper.
