Review of Pikeville Medical Center

Today was a GREAT day!

Today was a GREAT day!
Pikeville Medical Center won my confidence in the first ten minutes of being greeted by the receptionists/nurses at the check- in desk in the office of Dr. Naveed Ahmed, neurologist.
My 81 year old father was the patient and my Mother and I accompanied him. For two years various doctors , specialists and other physicians offered no explanations of test results, courses of action or just plain, old fashioned care and concern for this ongoing medical misery my Dad was made to endure. Within MINUTES Pikeville Medical Clinic and Dr. Ahmed erased all this agony with heartfelt concern and professionalism we had not seen in years. Always their reply, "we are here for YOU."

Personal interest and efficiency in teamwork was obvious from the start. Dr. Ahmed listened TO my parents, not AT them, he was not in a rush, sat close to them and made sure they understood his explanations as well as to the why he was asking questions he put to them. He was highly complimentary of his staff that was working closely with him which made my Dad and Mom feel at ease. He ordered tests and they were performed THAT VERY DAY. His staff and both floors we had to travel to for various tests all brought the same, smiling faces in helpful places.

If you are sick and tired of being sick and tired, please CALL NOW and get yourself, or your family member, an appointment at this medical center. You will not have to wait for months for an appointment.

Dr. Ahmed is genuine and caring. He is also board certified in several areas. The standout attribute about Dr. Ahmed, he is Christian influenced and led. You will see it. You will feel it.
In turn, Dr. Ahmed introduced me to Christy Prater, Clinic and floor manager of Pikeville Med Center. She is continuing to make this clinic the best for all patients as demonstrated by the Mayo Clinic partnership. A former nurse with multiple areas of practice, she is another star in the performance rating for Pikeville Medical Center. Forthright, and again, concerned, she shared with me goals and strategy to attain them in an impressive personal conversation.
Today was a GREAT day, God Bless this medical center and all who attend as a patient as well.
