10th April 2019. I recently had a Bi-Ventricular pace maker upgrade under the care of Dr. Matthew Kahn and his team at the Silver Heart Unit, Fairfield Hospital and subsequently had checks at the Pacemaker Clinic.The care and attention I received was outstanding at both locations with Staff going to great lengths to be helpful; informative; caring and reassuring. Dr Kahn and his team are great ambassadors for the Cardiology Dept. Fairfield Hospital and for the N.H.S. Robert Leech, Norden, Rochdale.

I presented with a distressing heart condition and having had previous consultations for various conditions, never before have I had such a thorough and meaningful consultation during which he informed me if everything I needed to know about my condition and how it was going to be treated. Dr Khan was kind, caring, understanding and very thorough. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to others and would like to thank him for putting my life back on track.

Dr. Kahn is an excellent Cardiologist and has always treated me with the utmost care and attention. He is very personable and also very good at explaining what is happening in plain words so it is easily understandable; I have every confidence in him. I can't thank him enough for all the help and treatment I have received over the last two years. Highly recommended.

Dr Kahn gave me great care at all times in both pre op and after care. I am very great full for all he has done for me in the fitting of my pacemaker and all the help and advice he gave me afterwards at Fairfield Hospital.
