Dr. Leaque Ahmed - Banded May 14, 2009 by Dr. Ahmed

Hello,

I was banded on May 14, 2009 by Dr, Ahmed in Lawrence hospital, Bronxville, NY. He is a kind, gentle and very professional surgeon who tells it like it is. When I had my preop appointment with him I went loaded with a ton of questions and he patiently answered each and every one. On day of surgery he came to my bedside preop and held my hand to reassure me.

I think he's an awesome doctor and encourage anyone to see him.

Congratulations! Keep up the good work! I am scheduled to be banded on June 15th by Dr. Ahmed, I really got a good vibe from him and he is very relaxed, I was nervous and although I didn't have many questions I shall be sure to have some before the operation!.

Hi there...

Good luck on your surgery. He really is a great guy. I'm going in for my first fill today and I'm really excited.

Best of luck and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Thank You Rosa! how was your fill?? Everything went excellent and he is very nice, I have to see him on July 1st and am excited. I was unable to sleep last night but perhaps it is a side effect of the anethesia or maybe because I thought I had to sleep sitting up. How much weight have you lost?? Thanks again and good luck!
