Patient Experience Reviews
Friendly, respectful, answered any questions I had, would recommend to friends, etc
All of my Doctor experiences at university hospital are great.
Dr Amin is very caring and compassionate. I adore her!
Dr. Amin was amazing. Her nurse *** was equally wonderful. I came to this appointment very nervous and afraid for the future. They put me at easy and completely changed my outlook on the situation.
I am so happy that I chose UH for my medical needs. I've had a lot of appointments the past month and I received the best care each time I went. I've been to 4 UH campus's this month and each one was better than the next. The kindness and support I have received is so appreciated.
I was recently diagnosed with *** cancer. Although a I won't be seeing Dr. Amin until after treatment she showed care and empathy during my appointment. She was knowledgeable and showed great care for her patients.
Dr Amin and her Resident were very nice, professional and respectful. Very clear and listened to my mom and my concerns. *****
After leaving the office with my mother, I asked her what she thought of Dr. Amin. She stated Dr. Amin is just fantastic!!! On the other hand, I had no words, being so dumfounded for the very first time in my life of seeing a surgeon! I've never seen anyone like her in my whole life where she was very personable; she's very patient in explaining step-by-step information; she gave her feedback, she has an excellent bedside manner, and above all else, she's so detailed oriented I loved it! It would be so nice to duplicate her! She's absolutely an over-the-top person who really cares about others! In addition to these talents of her job, I saw and heard the confidence she has. I highly recommend Dr. Amin - in fact I already have with someone I met over the phone recently!
Dr Amin and her team are exceptionally good at making me feel heard and important!
The office of Dr. Amin runs like a well oiled machine. The staff is over the top knowledgeable, patient and kind. 10/10 recommend anyone at this office.
Excellent care! One if the best doctors I have ever seen.
I am extremely happy with all aspects of my visit to Dr Amin and the staff at Ahuja Medical Center. I feel I have made an excellent for my upcoming procedure.
Excellent experience.
Dr. Amin is one of the most caring physicians I have ever had. I always leave feeling like she took time with ME, not just the next patient on her schedule. I recommend her to anyone and everyone I come in contact that could use her as their physician. Truly one of the best!!
I came in for a second opinion. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Amin and what she suggested. The doctor was very good and very thorough when I first met her and we went over all the results I had from *** hospital. ***
Dr. Amin was professional but caring. Appeared knowledgeable and confident about her ability. Made me feel like I was going to be in the hands of an Extremely competent dr.
Dr Amin is excellent
The care was exceptional I highly recommend provider for any one going through breast cancer. If I can give more than a 10 rating I would. Her expertise and knowledge was.beyond exceptional. I felt very privileged that I received this type of care.
The nurse who went over my meds and took my blood pressure wasn't very friendly. Dr Amin has always been very welcoming, caring, sits and we discuss my concerns and together we decide the best treatment for me and how to proceed from here. I always look forward to seeing her. Would highly recommend her,
