Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

The best in town
Dr. Khan is a detailed and attentive physician who takes a holistic approach to patient care. He not only conducts comprehensive lab tests and evaluations but also prioritizes listening to patients' feelings and concerns. Based on this thorough understanding, he recommends the most appropriate course of action. I have been highly satisfied with Dr. Khan's care.

I recently had a carotid stent put in and had complications with it and we have called 5 times and left messages to have a call back but never received any. It’s sad to say I trusted him with my life but it doesn’t matter to him after I had complications, I can only hope and pray there are no other patients that have or will experience this but I have moved on to a better Dr

Absolutely the worst office staff I have ever encountered. Two visits here is enough that I would never return. The Doctor is good, but when you are treated like absolute trash by his office staff, you go somewhere else. I practice medicine and run a clinic. I would fire every one of them. Save yourself from leaving angry, go somewhere else. A Doctor is only as good as his staff. This clinic deserves -5 stars if possible! No issues with DR Khan, but if the office staff is terrible, it negates the experience with him.

My Father went and saw Dr Kahn with chest pains. Dr Khan ordered every test in the book and after interpreting the results assured him he was fine, A week later my father had a quadruple bypass and almost died. I'd urge you all to find another option. My mother accompanied my father to his visits and complained Dr Khan has "Hygiene issues" as well

Dr. Khan is straight forward but professional. He listens when I have questions and answers them. Neither he nor his staff make me feel uncomfortable in any way. I can ask any question, cardio related or not, and I get his full attention. I also really appreciate the communication between him and my PCP. They take care of the doctor speak and my PCP stays informed.

Dr Kahn has been my cardiologist since 2008. I trusted him and should not have. I am not a patient to him, only a revenue source. He and his colleague Dr Shahzad kept listing serious issues like an aortic aneurysm to run test after test and procedure after procedure. I am finally realizing my mistake in seeing him and have moved to a new cardiologist. My records request from Dr Kahn was absymal - basically I had to obtain records of procedures done via the hospital outpatient system.
