"Pre-Op: Adore this man. Probably has the best run practice on Long Island. Although I am concerned about altering my digestive process and all the potential side effects, including death, I do have faith in Dr. Ahmad's skill as a surgeon. Beyond that he is just an amazing human being.rnrnI have watched my waistline increase and my health deteriorate enormously and feel both gratitude and optomism that someone like Dr. Ahmad has the ability to help me regain my health.rnrnAlso of note is that fact that he turned Mather Hospital into a Bariatric Center of Excellence. Not an easy feat by any means!rn-----------------------------------------------rnrnPost Op: What a great surgeon. Highly skilled, thorough, involved. Saw him everyday in the hospital, never had difficulty reaching him once I went home. Only a phone call away day or night!rnrnI experienced an excellent post op course, without complications, almost no scarring due his laproscopic approach.rnrnHe offers a very comprehensive support program. His staff is very personable and caring. They know who you are when you call!rnrnSix months post op and I remain free from diabetes, high blood pressure, GERD, joint pain and foot pain. I am finally free from the depression/anxiety I constantly felt over wieight issues/declining health. I have lost 83.5 pounds and have gone from wearing an 18W to a size 6. People walk past me and don't even recognize me.rnrnDr. Ahmad has restored my health, my emotional well being and taught me how to eat properly. He has changed my life forever!rnrnI have so much energy now I enrolled in a 3 year Master's Program in addition to working full time!!!rnrnThank you, thank you, Dr. Ahmad!rn"

"Excellent, clinically superior hospital. The only downside is the overhead page system which is going off day and night. Mkes getting rest a bit challenging."
