I have an opportunity to treat with other hematologists in the tri-state area, and I choose Dr. Ahmed for her sensitivity, for her availability, for being there for me and my daughter at any time of the day, [Date] . I appreciate that she has an open communication with my family and my daughter in regards to her care. I definitely love the personal effect that she gives. This has chose me to stay with her and to continue with my care versus traveling to others due to the fact of Dr. Rafat Ahmad keeps me at Cooper. Cooper Hospitalization itself, I may not rate them a 10, but my hematologist gets a 10 with five golden stars all the time, all the way. Thank you so much for your time and have a good day.

Dr. Ahmed is the most professional, lovely doctor I ever met. She is so wonderful. She really knows what she's doing. She cares and she just takes any, it feels like she takes any kid personal for her. And I really appreciate her for everything she has done for my child and for our family because if it wasn't for her, we wouldn't find out what was wrong with my daughter and fix the problem. So I'm really, really fortunate to have meet her in my life and my daughter. She's wonderful. You guys have a wonderful doctor in your hands. We love her. She's our angel.
