Dr Khan diagnosed and managed my Paroxysmal Hemicrania which others had failed to do. She is exceptionally thorough and caring. I now send my neurology referrals to her-I work as a Consultant myself-and feedback is always exceptional

I am a 64 year old female who was diagnosed with petit mal seizures 33 years ago. These seizures were controlled by taking Tegretol and I do not have them anymore but still take the medication. About 15 years ago I started having dizzy spells and double vision quite frequently. This would happened as I looked upwards quickly. I went to my GP about it and was referred to a neurologist at Maidstone. I explained my symptoms to him and he said that unless he witnessed me during these dizzy spells he could not really do anything to help me. So I thought that unless he let me knock on his door when it was happening There was nothing to be done. I put up with these dizzy spells until early this year 2018. I was working as receptionist on Dr Khan's clinic and I just happened to mention my problem to her. She said that if I went to my GP and got a referral letter to see her she would see me as soon as possible. I went to see Dr Khan and straight away she recognised that I had been on the same medication for the entire time that I had suffered the seizures and thought that I could be suffering with paroxysmal episodes of Tegretol toxicity. Dr Khan's treatment plan for me is to ween me slowly off of Tegretol and change me to another tablet. I have been working at this since March and am doing very well with no dizzy spells or double vision. I have complete faith in Dr Khan and think that she is a wonderful doctor who knows her speciality very well.

I have just had my first appointment with Dr NL Khan and It was the first time since I was diagnosed with Parkinson's five years ago that I have come away from seeing a consultant feeling positively cheerful. Dr Khan was welcoming, friendly and seemed genuinely interested. She was frank about the fact she can give no guarantees about results, but convincing in her determination to do her best. I know there is a long way to go and plenty to think about but it does make a difference to feel such warm support.

After suffering for many years with what I'd always been told was a nervous tic, affecting my head and upper body. From the first consultation with Dr Khan, she diagnosed me with Dystonia. We tried a number of different medications and including botox and although I haven't found the absolute solution - I feel confident that I've made progress and this will continue to be a case of trial and error. Dr Khan was very easy to talk to, she was extremely personable and I always felt like I was being treated like an individual and not a patient. I'll be forever grateful for her for providing me with a diagnosis.
