Patient Feedback

  • I have seen Dr I Ahmed twice recently. On my initial visit I found him to be polite, courteous and very thorough. He investigated and diagnosed my problem. Prescribed the relevant treatment, which is working. On my follow up appointment he met the high standard which was set previously. At all times I was kept informed of what was happening. I am really pleased with his service and would definitely recommend him.

  • Dr Ahmed left no stone unturned and after all my scans came back I was diagnosed with a rare ‘paroxysmal hemicrania headache’. Once I started the medication Dr Ahmed reviewed me weekly and helped me alter the medication to prevent severe side effects. Because of his quick action and diagnosis I am no longer in pain, and I have fully come off my medication. Dr. Ahmed was very thorough, clear, provided me confidence and great advice, this included an immediate follow-up call ensuring I was seen to by the right team at the hospital the next day. I am very pleased with Dr. Ahmed's genuine compassion and tenacity.

  • Dr Ahmed has worked miracles when I really did think that this pain would have to be part of the rest of my life. I am so grateful to him.
