He trained in the north-west of England (Sheffield, Birmingham and Manchester) and undertook specialist fellowship training in the USA, Toronto, Canada, and Mainz, Germany. He was also awarded the prestigious American - British - Canadian (ABC) fellowship in 2004 by the British Orthopaedic Association.

He is particularly interested in hip preservation surgery and offers arthroscopic hip surgery and osteotomies around the hip joint.
He has always enjoyed the interaction with patients and takes time to discuss all treatment options, looking at alternatives and explaining problems affecting you or your child.
Prof. Khan is passionate about research. His research interests include arthroscopic hip surgery in children and adults, joint replacement in young adults, gait analysis in children and cerebral palsy.
