Review for Dr. Ratnayake
I am very pleased with Dr. Ahmed's care. I have long Covid and he has stayed on top of my care. My lungs were damaged and he put me on oxygen full time for 2 years, then assessed my lungs and found they were healing, so I only had to use oxygen at night. Recently he noticed my lungs weren't sounding...

Review for Dr. Ahmed
Lied on a lot of my exam paperwork, did not conduct the exam to the proper standard, ignored many of the things we talked about and things I noted down. Pencil whipped a lot of the form.
