Bio

Dr. Khan was born in New York but grew up in the Chicagoland area. She completed her medical school training at Dow International Medical College in Pakistan, followed by a Master in Public Health in Public Health Management from the University of Kansas School of Medicine in Wichita, KS.

After completing her three year family medicine residency training in 2024 at Roseburg Family Medicine Residency Program in Oregon, returning to the Tri-City area to become a physician at Fox Valley Medical Associates was a logical choice being a 2009 St. Charles East High School graduate whose first professional job was located in Geneva.
