Patient Comments
I feel Dr. Ahmad is very proficient in what he does. I appreciate his expertise and I also appreciated that he allowed a Tele Med appointment as I live an hour away. Since he only had to go over my CT Scan a Tele Med appointment was most appropriate and greatly appreciated.
All staff members including clerical medical and the Doctor were friendly,courteous and professional.
I always feel comfortable during my visits. Everyone is very respectful and caring. Dr Ahmad is so relatable and explains everything and puts me at ease. He tries not to scare me about things. I really trust everyone associated with FCCC
Doctor made sure I understood my scans
This was my first time seeing this doctor. I felt comfortable with him and his manner. I was able to understand my course of future treatments, which made me feel very much at ease!
