Wonderful and caring doctor. My father was his patient and he went out of his way for him. I was also his patient for a number of years and then had Dr. Khan. We lived just down the street on Machray, so clinic was so handy. My condolences to the family. - Posted by: colin dederick (former patient, lived one block away on Machray from the clinic) on: Oct 26, 2014
