Earning his Bachelor of Medicine, and Bachelor of Surgery degree, he graduated with honors from Khyber Medical College Peshawar in Pakistan in 2002. After completing his residency in Pakistan, he moved to the United States of America in 2008 to pursue further postgraduate training. He completed his residency in internal medicine at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, serving as Chief Resident before working as a hospitalist for over seven years. For two years, Dr. Khan dedicated himself to the Academic Blood and Marrow Transplant program at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, where he worked under the supervision of Dr. Guido Tricot, a world-leading multiple myeloma expert.
Before relocating to Cincinnati and becoming the Chief Research Fellow of the Hematology and Oncology Fellowship Program at the University of Cincinnati, he concentrated on health economics, earning his MBA from the University of Massachusetts (UMass) Amherst.

Throughout his career, Dr. Khan has won many research and academic awards, including the Best Graduate Award in Medical School, the Research Chief Fellow Award, first place in Clinical Research at the University of Cincinnati in the Annual Research Symposium, and a grant from ACGME.
