"Had issues with my procedure being cancelled and rescheduled multiple times due to them not being able to get authorization from my insurance company. They seemed to not have any sense of urgency about it when I called and I would have just given up if it wasn’t for the fact that my symptoms are severe. The best way I found to get a call back from them was to text them, they are much more responsive than if you leave a voicemail. They finally got everything they needed from insurance and the day of the procedure went well. The facility is nice and new and the staff communicated everything thoroughly. Dr. Kavathia has been wonderful and I definitely recommend him."

I couldn’t find an office that didn’t have a 2 month waiting list and I was very discouraged I called the office and was able to get an appointment in less than 2 weeks to see Dr. Ahmed, what a blessing. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with a friendly smile and professionalism and only waited 10 minutes before being called back. I especially loved how Dr. Ahmed really took his time to listen to all of my concerns/questions as my anxiety level was high. His willingness to listen and took his time to explain my condition and treatment options with me, put me at ease. From his excellent treatment, investigative mind, professionalism and kindness, I knew that I had the right doctor!! I have since recommend him to my family/friends. Top notch care, thank you Dr. Ahmed!"

"I was very anxious about this colonoscopy because. Dr. Mahajani said he was going to give a super clean out. My imagination ran away with me.
