North Shore Orthopaedic Institute

Dr Ahmad listened very well to my needs and concerns and addressed them completely with his professional experience and personal concern. I had a full ankle joint replacement and sub-tailor fusion which was a fairly involved operation and the results exceeded my expectations. I plan on having him...

Great doctor cautions and caring will take care of you to the very best of his ability. One of the best surgeons I have ever had

I have had a very good experience with Dr. Ahmad. I had a broken heel bone that needed surgery including screws and plates. I had never had an injury this serious, and I was nervous and had a lot of questions and concerns. He answered my questions and explained my treatment options, as well as...

Would highly recommend.

To my surprise I had very little pain even though I had a complete rupture of the tendon. Dr. Amad's instructions to follow were well organized and clear. After 6 months I have returned to almost a complete recovery. By continuing my home exercises I will be back to all previous activities without...

I broke my ankle a few months ago and saw Dr. Ahmad for surgery and follow-up care. My experience with him has been excellent, with both his medical care and bedside manner being outstanding. He does a great job patiently listening, answering questions, and providing options for follow up...

I would recommend and encourage anyone who needs an Orthopedic surgery to see Dr. Ahmad because he is the best of the best. In addition to his excellent medical expertise and kills, he is a fantastic communicator. He responds text or phone messges within minutes of the request regardless the time...

Definitely don’t recommend. I’ve had 3 surgeries since Dr Ahmad told me that my ankle was “as good as it’s going to get” and there was “nothing more he could do.” He refused multiple times to send me for an MRI. I was told there’s “nothing is wrong with it” My new dr sent me immediately from his...

I had considerable pain in my left foot. I had Xrays twice that showed nothing mainly because of the swelling. Dr. Ahmad said my symptoms were not consistent with the Xrays and ordered an MRI which indicated that I had a stress fracture. My Visits have been a pleasure. He is thorough and very...

Dr. Ahmad was very clear and concise regarding my injuries and what was to follow. He always explained everything and took the time during my appointments and was never rushing to get out. Even afterwards he would always say let me know if you need anything and to never hesitate to contact him or...

Dr. Ahmad diagnosed and treated my "Maisonneuve fracture" about 8 months ago. He predicted a 9-month recovery based on the injury and my age. I was confident in his recommendation for a surgical repair, and felt confirmed in this when I woke up the second morning after surgery essentially pain-free....

I am very happy with the result of Dr. Ahmad's hammertoe surgery. I have lived with this painful condition for over 45 years. I wish I knew about this before but better late than never. I have gone on two 3 mile walks since the surgery and unbelievable I have no pain as I would have before the...

Dr. Ahmad is a excellent Doctor. He takes the time to explain everything to you very thoroughly and spends as much time as needed to make sure all of your questions are answered. He is rarely running behind too which is great.

Dr. Ahmad repaired my ruptured achilles tendon. Surgery was successful and he and his team were excellent in terms of communication and letting me know what to expect and how to manage my recovery. I have been very pleased with the care received.

Dr. Ahmad was very thorough and clearly explained all of the treatment options available to me. He was patient and open to all of my questions, and ultimately left the decision of treatment course up to me. My surgery went well without any complications and Dr. Ahmad as well as his surgical nurse,...

Exceptional doctor! Dr. Ahmad is not only a very skilled medical diagnostician and surgeon. He operates with artistry. The very bad condition of my right foot, after numerous surgeries done elsewhere, was finally solved successfully by Dr. Ahmad. He performed on my foot a very complicated reparatory...

After a different physician at a different hospital botched my broken ankle, leaving me with a destroyed joint, I turned to Dr. Ahmad. He is perhaps the most caring, thorough and technically competent doctor that I have ever encountered. I am 71 years-old so I have encountered many. He had to...

Dr. Ahmad and his Orthopedic team are superior in terms of quality of patient care. He expertly repaired my ruptured Achilles tendon in the OR, made himself available by phone in the first 24-48 hours after surgery, and he and his team have managed my recovery with sensitivity, honesty and clear...

Dr Ahmad was very professional and talk to me on a patient level! He didn't use a lot of medical jargon and walked me through every procedural option. He then explained in detail what he was doing before he did! Finally he informed but of things I should expect. I would recommend him to any of my...

Dr. Ahmad: the most considerate, kind hearted & open minded surgeon I have ever met! I never had to wait past my appointment time & had thorough consultations. He offered options that fit my personality type, listened to my concerns & suggested a game plan from there. He's fair & never pushed...

Dr. Ahmad was very thorough, professional and easy to talk to. He answered questions completely and made sure i understood all possibilities. Office visits took the time required. i did not feel rushed. Fractured foot surgery was a great success. The surgical team were also very professional and...

Very informative about all the pros and cons of my proposed surgery. Told me exactly what the plan was. Personable, very available and open to questions before and after surgery. Never had the feeling he was in a hurry.

Dr. Ahmad took time to listen to my issues and he treated with kindness and professionalism. He treated me and was as happy as I was when my treatment was successful and I did not need another appointment. He is a very caring doctor and has a wonderful manner of dealing with his patients. His staff...

He really listens to you and gives you his time. He is also diplomatic with difficult patients.

Dr. Ahmad is terrific. From day one he told me what to expect and what his recommendations were. At the end of each visit he asked me several times if I had any questions. Although my injury was no fun, I feel I got excellent care from Dr. Ahmad.

Very poor experience. I went in for ankle pain and Dr. Ahmad after looking at my x-ray told me I had arthritis and that I needed to wear a brace and if it wasn't better in a few weeks that surgery was the only option. After several weeks it hurt more so I went to another doctor, who correctly...

I had a very pleasing experience with Dr. Ahmad. He asked thoughtful questions and gave me insight into what was causing my pain. Under Dr. Ahmad's care my pain was alleviated. I feel better prepared to remain pain-free by following his advice and employing the exercises I was given. I thank my...

Dr.Ahmad is skilled surgeon and great communicator. He delivers compassionate care with excellence. I saw Dr. Ahmad periodically over a period of four months after a severely fractured ankle followed by surgery and recovery and was never disappointed with the care he provided.

To start with Dr. Ahmad is extremely calming. You could be on fire and he would tell you in a calming tone to stop, drop and roll. That really does help when you crawl into his office with broken bones in your foot thinking you will never walk again. He told me everything was going to be fine and...

Always ensured all our questions were answered and really inspired confidence. I highly recommend both Dr. Ahmad and Rothman.

Dr. Ahmad performed surgery on my right ankle a few years ago, ankle arthroscopy. He did an amazing job, now I am pain free, without the limp that I had before, and I'm doing much better than I ever dreamt possible. Dr. Ahmad cares very much about his patients and he is a wonderful surgeon and...

I would not consider any other Orthopedic Surgeon other than Dr. Ahmad. I highly recommend Dr. Ahmad and his staff for any ankle or foot surgery. Dr. Ahmad explained my surgery and recovery time in detail. I never felt that I was being rushed in and out for my office visits. His staff is very...
