Dr Khan is a highly professional, experienced, physician. He is caring, attentive, actually listens to his patients, he went out of his way to explain my condition, he understood my anxiety and even asked if I or my Husband had any questions. He is friendly and kind and that goes a long way to reassure patients. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I found it very easy to discuss fairly complex symptoms with Dr Khan. His manner was encouraging but professional. He listened intently and asked pertinent questions. The current trend of typing on a computer while listening to a patient, which I personally find off putting , he didn’t do, and yet he remembered all the details that I had given as shown by the letter I later received. His conclusion, done in a measured way, gave me great confidence in his ability to help me. He chatted informally at the end, putting me at my ease.

I had a great experience with Dr Khan. I had been suffering for so long and from the first day I saw him he immediately started the process of alleviating my IBS symptoms. The diagnosis in itself was a relief just knowing what is wrong with me thank you.
