She provides comprehensive care that prioritizes patient-centered strategies and fosters interdisciplinary collaboration. Her clinical interests include preventive medicine, geriatric medicine, chronic disease management and dementia.

Prior to joining Baptist Health, Dr. Ahmad was chief of geriatric medicine at Alameda Health System in Oakland, Calif., where she managed the delivery of geriatric care in both inpatient and outpatient settings and fostered the professional growth of staff, students, residents and fellows.

"We are pleased to welcome Dr. Ahmad to our highly skilled team of medical professionals, dedicated to providing the highest quality care to our patients,” said Jack Ziffer, Ph.D., M.D., executive vice president, chief clinical officer and chief physician executive at Baptist Health.
