I have recently visited the Doctor. The first thing I am impressed with is the visit was I could meet the doctor at the appointed time. The doctor is methodical and listened to my case history taking notes. She has suggested further tests before suggesting changes in the medication, dosage and frequency etc. Her plans for follow up is very good and I am happy to recommend Dr. Uzma Khan.

Dr Uzma is one of the most caring doctors who listen to their patients. While patiently explaining them their problems, she brings forward achievable solutions to them, while being strict with her management strategies. Thanks to Dr Uzma, my father's diabetes got controlled within the first two months of following up with him. Even thyroid is under control

I live in US and consulted couple of doctors on my Hashimotos/Goiter/Hypothyroid issues. Although the treatment was not complex, no one provided clear explanations and responded patiently to the questions i had except Dr. Uzma. Last year when i visited her, i was very impressed by the way she listened to my concerns patiently and provided response and so this year even though Dr.Uzma changed her hospital, we searched for her and consulted her as followup. I certainly recommend anyone with thyroid problems and who needs explanations on their health issues to visit Dr. Uzma.

*** **** ** ******** *** **** *************** **** **** ********* ****. Nobody was able to hit the spot with a diagnosis; neither in the US nor India. After doing tests and giving my symptoms, she not only explained why my body was feeling and working a certain way but came up with logical solutions. If you're looking for a doctor to tell you the root cause instead of overdosing you with medications, you best believe she's going to get right down to it.. Good luck!!

Very polite and she is highly experienced. I am suffering from acute thyroiditis since last 7 months, I have consulted with number of doctors of reputed hospitals in this duration but got the right treatment and suggestion from Dr.Uzma only. I was on very strong and heavy medication earlier but there was no improvement at all. When I consulted with Dr. Uzma she explained in detail about the illness and corrected the line of treatment. She confidently stopped all the unnecessary medicines. I am very thankful to her.
