Communication is not good. I was told I absolutely needed surgery and then that changed but I was not notified of that until I called several times and asked for someone to call me and explain what was going on.

Dr. Khan was actually the first provider that confirmed the diagnosis that I thought I had. He explained the symptoms and to why they met a certain criteria. He assured me if the symptoms came back that I could see him ASAP and be treated appropriately.

As the patient's mother, Dr. Khan took away chronic pain that she experienced to due a benign osteoblastoma. Dr. Khan used RF ablation to remove this lesion, thus preventing further complications in regards to pain.
