Arif Ahmad Bariatric Surgeon MD, FACS, FRCS

After many years of trying many diets, i decided to get healthy and began to research Lap-Band Surgery. Dr. Ahmad and his staff were kind, caring, thoughtful, and always took as much time as i needed to explain the procedure. They were also always available. i wish i had done this ten years ago!

Dr. Ahmad is such a great guy. He is very easy going and informative. You can ask him anything you need to without feeling uncomfortable. His staff is warm and friendly with some funny sarcasm here and there. He explains both surgerys in great detail, has excellent experience and is definatly highly recommended. I appreciate everything that his staff and him did for me. Changed my life.

Dr. Ahmad is the best. He is kind and compassionate. He fully explained everything I needed to know about the gastric by-pass procedure, and the follow up care has been wonderful. rnrnHe did not make light the risks of this surgery and made sure that I was fully aware of all that I was facing and was going to experience.rnrnI think he is a wonderful surgeon and a great humanitarian. He treats the whole person, body mind and soul. I am grateful to have met him and for him to have been my doctor.

He is a wonderful & compassionate person. His assistant and wife Seema is also a wonderful person.

Dr. Ahmad is the most skilled and kind doctor.

Dr. Ahmad & his staff have been great! They keep me motivated., encourage me and provide a built in \"check\" against cheating - monhtly weigh ins!

Dr. Ahmad is the most skilled, & kind doctor that I have ever dealt with.

Dr. Ahmad is the greatest! I have had a very significant surgery history with severe complications a few years ago and I was scared to death to have another surgery. Dr. Ahmad and Seema were the most comforting people I have ever met. They understood my fears and helped me overcome them. Dr. Ahmad took so much time with my surgery (over 3 hours) even though it was laporascopic because of my past history. I can't say enough about how appreciative and thankful I am to have found such a great surgeon. Amanda in the office is also so upbeat and friendly. I would recommend his practice highly!!!!

What a wonderful experience. Everyone in his office was always so nice and understanding. Seema his wife just seems to always care so much everytime I see her. She always has a smile on her face is so sweet. As for Dr. Ahmad, I could have not picked a better surgeon. He was amazing, my surgery was smooth, he was always there to check on me. My incisions healed up already and im only 2 weeks post op. He was extremley professional and gifted in what he does. I really appreciate all the care that him and Seema showed me. I also want to thank Evelyn for being there for me, she works in the office as well and was at the hospital to see me before my surgery and after, what an angel. Thank you everyone at Dr. Ahamads office you are great!

My first impression of Dr. Ahmad is that he definetly is a great surgeon. He knew what he was talking about and could answer ANY question. We also knew a couple people who used him before I decided to get information about the surgery and they reccomended him.rnHis office staff are the nicest and most supportive people you will ever meet and I love them all. Most of them have has weight loss surgery themselves so they know a great deal about it and can answer almost anything as well. Dr. Ahmad would definetly be a 10 out of 10 in my opinion! The only thing that was a little troublesome about Dr. Ahmad was that he has a large amount of surgery time and a smaller amount of office hours (mostly Tuesdays and Thursdays) so plan ahead if you want to get into his office because it may take a few days (but I guess most doctors who are as good as him have a bit of a wait! And I think it was totally worth it!) the staff will work with you as much as they can but don't get discouraged if you can't get in to see him on the exact date that you want to!
