My elderly father had a previous history of stent insertion for heart disease and he had been getting increasingly short of breath so I took him to see Dr Kahn at The Spire as the NHS waiting times were increasing. Dr Kahn was so lovely and made my father feel at ease straight away. He included me in the conversation which was really helpful as my father has Parkinson's disease and does struggle to talk. Dr Kahn was patient, understanding and explained everything in language that we could both understand. He is an absolute gentleman and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone who is looking to seek advice from a kind, compassionate and very experienced Cardiologist.

In March 2022 I was diagnosed by Dr Kahn and Professor Stables with a Heart failure condition
On 30th May 2022 Dr Kahn fitted me with a Cardiac Resynchronisation Device (CRT-D)? with Defibulator. I remained awake for the whole procedure during which I felt zero pain or discomfort.
I was discharged the following day and other than a small amount of bleeding from the wound, which Dr Kahn stopped by managing my medication, I have also been totally pain free ever since. My pulse rate is now resting at 70 bpm and my fitness and exercise tolerance is better than I can remember for a number of years. I am being monitored by The Cardiac Implanted Devices Clinlc at LHCH and in in July 2022 and January 2023 I attended appointments where it was confirmed that everything the procedure was expected to do is in place and totally satisfactory.
Compare this to a friend of mine in East Yorkshire who had the same procedure in May 2022 at a Harley Street Clinic and is even now in constant pain and discomfort with limited movement in her left arm.
Apart from his surgical skills Dr Kahn is an excellent listener and communicator. He made me feel totally relaxed and confident about what he was going to do and what I should expect.
I have the utmost respect and trust in Dr Mattew Khan

Nothing to improve here. Matthew Khan provided a very efficient and effective consultation setup by his secretaries Jane and Sara-Jane. Jane gave me some very timely advice to go to A&E due to chest pains. Sudsequently she arranged an evening appointmet to see Matthew . After examination Matthew took my wife and I though a diagnosis and treatment path. Within two days he had written to my GP to plot the way forward with my treatment and copied me into the communication. I've had a follow up conversation with his secretary Sara-Jane to outline next steps including a return to NHS care. Overall an outstanding process. Matthew provided us with reassurance and support. I wish to thank the three of them and would recomend them to family and friends. Trevor Stephenson
