Dr. Kahn expressed empathy and clear communications. She addressed what matters most to me.

Reviewed on Jun 13, 2024

Dr. Khan was clearly very knowledgeable and quickly developed a care plan for me. I just found her interaction with me distant. She did not make eye contact often and was all business, and quick to move on to next patient

Reviewed on Jun 12, 2024

Dr Khan went above and beyond to get me scheduled for two more appointments that same day due to the severity of my health issue.

Reviewed on Jun 10, 2024

This was by far the rudest doctor I have ever encountered. She did not care at all. She gave me a generic, boiler-plate sheet about making a smoothie, which contained Ingredients I have taken daily in the past to no avail. She never actually discussed it with me, though, so I couldn't tell her this doesn't work. She blamed my symptoms on a pre-existing condition that I told her was completely under control. She sent me for labs. The labs came back showing that the pre-existing condition is completely under control and that my iron levels were low. I heard nothing back from her. I had to contact her again to ask her what to do about the labs. Her response was that she will make a note of them. What?!? That does not help me at all. She was wrong about the cause- then gave me no follow-up or alternative plan. She gave me no instruction about what to do about the one thing that actually showed up In the labs. What's the point of having me get labs if you're not going to do anything about them? She gave me no instructions, no plan, no anything. Then when I asked- I got a rude, glib response to add insult to injury.

Reviewed on May 8, 2024

My ultrasound report sat in her inbox for over four months without her ever reaching out to me to discuss the report or her concerns. Then she chastised me when I couldn't drop everything and run to do a proceedure within a 6 week time frame when she had 4 months prior to schedule it, Including a date when I was at the Cleveland clinic the previous month.

Reviewed on May 7, 2024

I would recommend Dr. Kahn to any woman looking to take charge of their health. But working with Dr. Kahn has to be a two-way street. She provides so much knowledge to living a healthy lifestyle, but you have to be willing to put in the effort. I feel blessed to be under her care.

This was my second visit with Dr Khan. I very much like her. I asked her some questions outside her areas of expertise and she provided advice for getting care. She was also great about why I actually had an appointment with her.

Reviewed on Nov 8, 2023

I have seen Dr. Khan 3 times, twice when she had a student and she was very respectful. The last time I saw her she didn't have a student. She was 20 mins late to the appt and only spent 5 mins with me. She was extremely rude and rushy, I almost felt like I was with a different physician. She at one point scolded me for have more than 3 questions to ask her. She falsified documentation by copying half of the visit notes from the past visit which had information and complaints that weren't relevant anymore. At the end of the 5 mins she stood up, held the door for me and shooed me out without mentioning when to follow up with her. I left the office and went into the waiting area where my husband was and cried because I have never felt so disrespected as a patient. I will not go see her again and I would not recommend her to anyone.

DR.Khon tried to remove my IUD that displaced, she new this before trying to remove it and she became irritated with me that it me caused pain and decided to leave it in there for another doctor to remove. I left in more pain than I came in with and offered no pain relief before or after trying to remove. After returning home I started bleeding heavily and increased amounts or pain, my IUD strings were hanging out of my vagina. My IUD had been dislodged by this doctor and she showed no concern or my pain and discomfort. Her bed side Manner was horrible. I had to go the emergency room to get it dislodged. She caused me more damage than helping me. Her only solution was for me to see a surgeon witch meant I would have to go weeks with the IUD that was dislodged and causing me pain and bleeding.

It felt very rushed and she didn't get a full picture of my medical status. She asked several questions during the exam, but never got a comprehensive view. The big conversations I wanted to have happened during the exam, when I was uncomfortable. When she discovered my condition, I felt like It was not explained at all. She said I needed to get additional tests done, but did not explain what they were or what they would entail. I also feel like she talked me into a decision about contraception that I was clearly unsure about without really consulting my needs or worries. Overall I feel more confused and less heard than before the appointment.
