I would recommend Dr Ahmad as a very good doctor. She listens to your problems and really care about making you better. I have been to many different doctors to help me to get better and live a better live. I have gotten my bi polar under control with her help. She truly wants you to get better. She has reduced my medicine to 4 medicines instead of 6. I'm a much better person with her help. I do have setbacks at times and she has me changed medicine so I feel better. I really like her.

Dr. Ahmad really listens to your concerns and is really willing to work with you when it comes to medication's prescribed for mental health. unlike some doctors, she is willing to work with you to taper off of medication's overtime instead of keeping you on them for an extended period of time. She has helped tremendously!

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
