Mr Khan exuded a reassuring and professional manner which was a great help in giving me confidence that the outcome would be successful. He took time to explain the procedure in detail and the recovery pathway subsequent to the operation. I would be very happy to recommend Mr Khan to anyone looking for his speciality.

With regard to my actual surgery experience it was absolutely excellent. I met the Anaesthetist and Mr Khan's Registrar before the surgery, both were kind, caring, professional, clear in their actions and discussions and answered clearly any questions I had. The nurses prior to the surgery were excellent, checked and confirmed information, were friendly, helpful (was one of the hottest days and they were so obliging with fans and moving us so we were kept cooler whilst we waited for surgery). Everyone was just so kind and amazing. My surgery was performed by Mr Khan and his team, which I understand now to have been trickier than usual due to previous kidney removal scar tissue, but the surgery (and my recovery since) went really well. Mr Khan came to see me the following morning to talk through the surgery with me, he was so kind and caring. He wasn't in a rush to leave like you can sometimes feel, he gave me his time and made me feel completely at ease and that what I had gone through was really important to him too. I had a further conversation with him yesterday to go over the results and next stages for me, and some other things and he was so amazing, he really really listened and understood what I had to say, he has taken everything on board, and I really appreciated that from him. A very genuine, kind, helpful and caring Surgeon - thank you so much to Dr Khan (and the whole team) for doing my surgery and for just being so lovely, really meant a lot.

I can honestly say that the treatment and surgery I have had from Shad Khan was exemplary from my first telephone appointment to the post surgery communications. He was kind, courteous and empathic and I was most impressed with the quality of surgery.

Mr. Khan carried out my parathyroidectomy four weeks ago and the whole process from start to finish was excellent. He ensured that understood the process was clear about the pros and cons of surgery. His prediction for the outcome was spot on and he has been on-hand to answer any queries and will be following up at six months. His approach is professional and efficient, and his demeanour is very friendly and approachable which is exactly what a patient needs. Plus - the scar is tiny! Thanks😁

Pre-op telephone consultation was thorough, friendly and kind. Operation was unbelieveably skilled with an awesomely small incision and incredible intra-operative testing and surgical skill. Follow-up was rigorous and easy. Could not believe how easy he made the whole experience.
