My experience with Dr.. Kahn was a positive one. He listened to my concerns regarding a previous bad experience, and I was reassured by him. I would never again be worried having my procedure done again if I knew Dr. Kahn would be performing it.

I requested a private consultant cardiology appointment at a local private hospital as my cardiac situation was becoming more volatile and I hadn't received a definitive diagnosis. Dr Kahn was very patient and listened to my history and seemed to find my 'evidence' (ECG tests, plus my own fitness tracker) useful to aid a formal diagnosis. At the end of the consultation, I now have a clear treatment plan, even if it does mean I have to wait for this. A new medication was commenced to see if this will ease the current situation. I left feeling more reassured than before the appointment and can highly recommend this consultant.

I can not thank Dr Khan enough, he listened to everything about my past health history without judgement and was very thorough in the tests that he requested. He was very knowledgeable in his subject, but at the same time approachable and very reassuring. After all my tests were complete he went through them with me in non medical terms and explained the results thouroghly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him nor see him again if I had any further issues. Overall a very approachable, professional individual I wish all Drs were of Dr Khan's calibre.
