Write a ReviewI had been struggling with a persistent cough for nearly a month and started feeling very weak. Earlier consultations didn’t give me a clear answer. When I met Dr Farah Khan, she listened patiently and reviewed my chest reports in detail. She didn’t rush into strong medication but first tried to identify the root cause properly. It turned out to be a post-viral infection issue. With supportive treatment and lifestyle care, my condition improved gradually over 2–3 weeks. Follow-ups were simple and reassuring.
I had low-grade fever for several days without knowing the reason, which made me very anxious. Dr Farah Khan took time to explain possible causes and didn’t let me assume worst-case scenarios. She suggested step-by-step testing instead of overtesting everything at once. That approach helped reduce my stress a lot. Eventually, the reports showed a mild infection, and treatment started accordingly. Within a week, I felt more normal and mentally relaxed as well.
I was constantly feeling tired and low on energy for weeks. I thought it was due to work stress, but Dr Farah Khan identified it as a possible vitamin deficiency after checking reports. She explained the condition in simple terms and suggested dietary changes along with supplements. I started noticing gradual improvement in my energy levels after 2–3 weeks. The follow-ups were not complicated, and she kept adjusting dosage based on progress.
I visited Dr Farah Khan after booking through clinic support, and the appointment process was smooth. She listened carefully to all my symptoms without rushing through the consultation. What I appreciated most was how clearly she explained the diagnosis and treatment plan in simple language. There was no unnecessary medication or confusion. The follow-up guidance was also very structured, which made it easy to track recovery without stress.
I had flu-like symptoms that kept recurring every few days, which was very frustrating. When I consulted Dr Farah Khan, she reviewed my previous prescriptions and suggested that overuse of antibiotics might have been delaying recovery. She changed the treatment approach and focused more on immune support and monitoring. Slowly, the recurrence reduced and I started feeling stable. It took some patience, but her approach felt more scientific and less rushed compared to earlier consultations.
