My first appt with Dr. Khan was very pleasant... very professional, and very caring! She listened intently to my concerns... Her exam was thorough.... And, her explanation of a plan moving forward made perfect sense, and I felt totally assured that I was in good hands under her care.

As a referral from my ophthalmologist Dr. [last name], I was most pleased to obtain an appointment with Dr. Khan on such short notice. It was a pleasure to meet her, and she and her staff were most accommodating to my old age idiosyncrasy. During the visit with Dr. Khan, she was most attentive and thorough in her examination and interview. She didn't rush the process and answered all questions with concise responses and delved further into those that didn't have a clear answer or diagnosis. All in all it was a wonderful visit, among the best I've had over many years of health care. Thank you Dr. Khan!

Dr. Khan was very thorough, taking over an hour of her time, with Phyllis and me (husband and caregiver). She was supportive throughout the visit, drawing out Phyllis's feelings and opinions. She was also encouraging about her ability, but graciously honest about her diagnosis and prognosis. While we didn't come away with as much hope as we'd wished for, we did find a conclusive diagnosis and clear path forward. She also offered all the supportive additional services available, but with Phyllis's choice as to whether or not to avail herself of them. Strongest recommendation!

Dr. Khan was incredibly patient during my appointment and did not rush through anything. She explained everything in detail, allowing me to fully understand each aspect of my visit. She is the kindest and most patient physician I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a neurologist.
