Dr Ahmadi and his nurse worked to get my surgery scheduled as soon as possible. Dr Ahmadi is always responsive to questions.

I left still in horrible pain, I haven't been able to sleep even. I was told to wait for the hospital to call and schedule a CT that my elbow was more than likely broken, but hard to tell because of the past surgeries. I live almost 3 hours away. So I left with tears in my eyes from pain and frustration. Also the lady that was sitting by the front door was very very rude. I come from a clinic setting and understand theses are hard times. But people are still sick and if you choose to work in the medical field at least have the decency to be halfway polite. If it were my clinic I managed before I got sick she would've been fired. Yes, I'm still in pain with no answers or help.

Experience was ok except my doctor wouldn't give me anything for pain. I shouldn't have to suffer with my pain because other people chose to abuse it!!!!!!!!!! That's NOT my fault.

Good overall experience, but it would be nice if the doctor would be more amenable to patient questions and concerns.
