Dr. Khan took time to listen and fully understand my history, then performed a thorough exam. He noticed and addressed my condition from a different perspective than previous drs and I think he is on target with diagnosing. He offered a reasonable plan of care and provided good patient teaching. He was friendly and caring.

I had been warned that doctors specializing in pain management could be less than patient-friendly and would not always listen or explain well. I couldn't have been more pleasantly surprised by all of my interactions with Dr. Khan. He answers all of my questions fully and shows me my scans while we're talking. He adjusts his language appropriately so I understand what he's describing without feeling confused or talked down to. During my procedure in April, Dr. Khan explained every step of the process and what I would experience physically, which helped tremendously. I felt more relaxed and the experience was a good one. I'm very glad to have found Dr. Khan to help me manage what will likely be an ongoing condition.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.
