    How was your appointment with Dr. Ahmad?

    Dec 04, 2020
    Dr. Ahmad used to be my primary doctor but left CHCB. My whole family was seeing her and we really loved her. Recently my mother got sick and was admitted to ECMC hospital and we were so shocked and happy to see it was Dr. Ahmad who was caring for my mom. She was amazing and updated us on her condition every step of the way. She is truly a well rounded, compassionate and intelligent physician. She is very patient and never rushes the visit.. I wish she would come back to primary care. My family really misses her.
