Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Been a patient for few years Dr Ahmed has been wonderful listens understanding. Would recommend her.

Dr. Ahmed has never been on time for my appointments (10-20 min late). She shaved off some of my appointment time to make up for her running late. She saw one patient after another without taking a break in between to review the next patient's records. As a result, she confused me with another patient and started to read from that patient's record. She answered her cell phone 2x during my appointment for a personal call (no apology). This is all very unprofessional, and I cannot recommend her.

I have just started going to her office. She shows interest in my wellbeing and she is very friendly. I'm definitely going to continue seeing her.

I found Dr Ahmed to be rude and dispondant. I knew I wouldn't be going back. She is uncaring and shows no empathy when it comes to her patients. I've completely lost my faith in the psychiatric field because of shopping for doctor's such as this one. I could've saved $25. Not worth the time or trouble.
