“I played competitive soccer at Northwestern University and had multiple orthopedic injuries, five of which required surgery. My father’s influence was undeniable, too, in my decision to enter the field of orthopedics. I also became drawn to learning how the body repairs itself and how I can use this natural ability to heal acute injuries in athletes and reverse degeneration of joints, ligaments, and tendons in active adults. I’m expanding the range of nonsurgical treatments, including arthritis treatment, tennis elbow treatment, golf elbow treatment, rotator cuff tear, plantar fasciitis, frozen shoulder, and tendonitis. I want to give my patients leading-edge treatment options they probably haven’t yet heard of – options that may help them avoid surgery and change their lives.”

“A month and a half ago I was referred to Doctor Ahmed Farag’s office for a PAE prosthetic arterial embolism.
Doctor Farag noticed that there was a problem on a CT scan that I had done the year before, due to his attention to detail he noted that I had a severe blockage of my descending aorta into my right leg, he quickly scheduled a procedure to put in a stent to return the blood flow to my right leg. What surprised me more than anything else was the fact that I was sent to his office for a different procedure and he noticed this problem on my CT scan, his attention to detail returned me back to normal walking function for which the last six years I've been having severe pain every time I walked in my right rear hip. His attention to detail has returned me back to normal activity I can now walk as far as I'd like. I owed doctor Farag a tremendous thanks for his attention to detail and quick action.
