It would be impossible for me to exaggerate dr. Khan’s strengths as a clinician: prompt, a careful listener, and careful in her observation of symptoms, clear in her diagnoses and prescribed course of treatment. And treats her patients as people who have real (and sometimes interesting) lives. With over 20 years of patient experience at ucla, I would say Khan is a clinical star.
