Dr Khan shows concern about my health and well being. He's thorough and efficient without being rushed. He is very easy to talk to. He has squeezed me into his busy schedule so I wouldn't have to come downtown twice due to I another appointment with my primary care doctor. He has been very helpful with my ongoing pain management so I can keep working without going on disability. This is extremely important to me.

Dr Kahn and his associates are top notch. My chronic pain journey has quite challenging to say the least, primarily due to numerous insurance-related matters. In spite of these road blocks, Dr Kahn never gave up the quest of finding pain relief for me. He is a gem who really cares for his patient's well being.

Dr. Dost Khan has gone to great lengths to try to relieve my serious back pain. Anytime I write to him in MyChart he replies almost immediately! Once I wrote to him on a Friday at 4:50pm, not expecting to hear back until sometime after the weekend. He wrote me back at 6:10pm that same evening. Amazing, as busy as I know he is!

THe attending doctor was thorough in examining my history including some major afflictions not directly affecting the area f my pain. He examined all the records of my history by checking into all recorded history on file at Northwestern Hospital. He suggested a possible remediation of my pain after I take another MRI to update the records of a few years ago, When the MRI is examined and he prescribes treatment I will be better able to deliver my true opinion of his service. As of the present , i found his demeanor and thoroughness to be impressive.
