Open communication is one of the main keys to achieving the best results for each individual” expressed Dr. Khan.
Dr. Khan chose plastic surgery because she believes this is the most creative and innovative field with the most potential to empower patients.

Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty involving the restoration, reconstruction, or alteration of the human body. It can be divided into two main categories – reconstructive surgery and cosmetic surgery. A plastic surgeon’s primary responsibility is performing surgical and non-surgical procedures, and they use a variety of reparative and reconstructive techniques to get the job done.
Among her most notable achievements, Dr. Khan has been the recipient of the Joseph E. Murray MD Award (2015), Harvard 1st Place Basic Science Award – Excellence in Surgery Research (2015), Surgical Resident Teacher Recognition Award (2017), Teamwork and Accomplishment Recognition Award (2018), Golden Apple Resident Teacher of the Year Award (2018), and Outstanding Academic Achievement in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Award (2019).
