Mr. Khan is a Consultant Cardiac Surgeon with a specialist focus on minimally invasive heart surgery. He is dedicated to helping patients achieve faster recovery and return to normal life sooner through the use of advanced, less invasive surgical techniques.

 

He has extensive experience in heart valve repair and replacement, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), and complex aortic surgery. By utilising smaller incisions and refined surgical approaches, he aims to reduce postoperative pain, shorten hospital stays, and improve both cosmetic and long-term clinical outcomes.

 

Mr. Khan completed his specialist training through the London Deanery Cardiothoracic Programme, where he developed expertise in complex aortic and mitral valve surgery. He has since played a key role in introducing innovative techniques within his unit, including pioneering a minimally invasive conduit harvesting programme, significantly improving outcomes for patients undergoing bypass surgery.

 

He has performed the first endoscopic-assisted aortic valve replacement at King’s and has led his team in performing the first use of the Neo ED Frozen Elephant Trunk device for complex aortic arch surgery in South London.

 

Mr. Khan has particular expertise in the surgical management of carcinoid heart disease, including complex valve surgery in patients with carcinoid syndrome.

 

Alongside his clinical practice, he is an active researcher and educator. He has authored over 50 peer-reviewed publications and regularly presents at national and international cardiothoracic surgery conferences. His research focuses on improving patient safety, surgical outcomes, and innovation in minimally invasive cardiac surgery.

 

He also holds an MBA from King’s College London, complementing his clinical expertise with strong leadership and healthcare management skills. This enables him to deliver high-quality, patient-centred care while driving innovation and service development in modern cardiac surgery.
