Definitely. High energy and really interested in getting to the bottom of my gut health issues.

10/29/2025

Dr. Ahmed has a wonderful bedside manner. He is personable, thorough, knowledgeable and explains medical information well. He has been my Gastroenterologist since April of 2022. He actually did my ERCP and biopsied my pancreas to discover I had early stage of pancreatic cancer. Had it not been for him ( and God guiding him) to take that extra measure to biopsy during the procedure, I may not be alive today. I am his miracle patient and I am so blessed to be cared for by him.
