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.

Disrespectful office manager and staff member
Dr. Ahmed is a ok doctor but his office manager is rude and disrespectful. Never going back again!

Dr. Syed Ahmed is very thorough and cares about his patients in my opinion. I switched after 20 years with another Dr. to him about 3 years ago. Always very responsive and usually easy to get in for an appointment. I am very impressed how thorough his report about your visit was that he inputs on the Health Portal.

I had many symptoms that pointed to acquiring further lab work. Instead, I was given a prescription for anxiety/ depression. I went on to see another specialist for the same symptoms the same day for my resgular visit. After a simple urinalysis revealed I had a moderate infection which explained many of the symptoms. Immediately, I was treated with the correct medication. My mood improved after several days. I was very disappointed at the lack of caring and poor judgement. NO RECOMMENDATION

I had previously left a review when I was denied to be given a refill on my Antibiotics. The situation was resolved right away and gotten a call from my pharmacy that my prescription is read. Thank you Dr. Ahmed and see you soon for my physical exam.-Imad in katy, tx

I knew something was wrong.After 2 drs., including my excellent dr. of 10 yrs. Dr. Ahmed finally listened to me, drew 6 vials of blood and discovered a vitamin D deficiency.He did not make clinical diagnosis based on symptoms but sent me to specialists.The ENT made a diagnosis based on symptoms, prescribed a med causing terrible side effects.Dr. Ahmed recognized the diagnosis and med, asked if the ENT did tests,NO.so he sent me to a rheumatologist who did tests and root of my problem discovered!

I was a patient 1998-2013. He and his staff are very nice, however he chases symptoms & as such misdiagnosed me and watched me suffer for years with multiple symptoms. He prescribed a different med to treat each symptom up to 12 scrips at 1 time. One of my specialists recognized all my symptoms and referred me to another dr. who diagnosed me correctly.In 1 month all my symptoms were alleviated w/ just 1 scrip. I felt betrayed by Dr. Ahmed who should have caught this problem years earlier.
