Background

Board certified in radiobiology/physics by the American Board of Radiology, Mohammad Khan, MD, PhD, MS, FACRO, FACR, DABR, specializes in the treatment of lymphoma, leukemia, multiple myeloma, skin (melanoma, squamous cell, basal cell, merkel cell), and pediatric cancers. Dr. Khan serves as vice chair for education in the Department of Radiation Oncology where he works to complement and extend the department's educational efforts beyond its residency programs.

Dr. Khan fluently speaks English, Urdu, Hindi and is familiar with Spanish and Arabic.

Dr. Khan is a sought-after subject matter expert on low-dose radiotherapy and other radiation oncology topics. He has appeared on a number of media outlets, including CNN, Forbes, and WebMD.

Prior to medical school, Dr. Khan received two BS degrees, one in Nuclear Engineering and one in Biology with a minor in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Both degrees were awarded with Summa Cum Laude distinction. He then completed his MS, and PhD degrees in Nuclear Engineering with emphasis on health and medical physics from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. His graduate research focused on the use of innovative imaging technologies, such as PET and MRI, to improve radiation treatment planning for emerging cancer therapeutics such as boron neutron capture therapy for patients with malignant brain tumors.

Dr. Khan did his residency training in radiation oncology at the Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH. He completed a fellowship in ABS Prostate Bracytherapy at the Seattle Prostate Institute and an internship in medicine and surgery at the Cleveland Clinic.

One star One star One star One star One star	12/07/2024	Can say enough good things about Dr. Khan and his staff. I'm not overly excited about more radiation but if it's necessary I would rather Dr Khan and his staff be the ones doing it.
One star One star One star One star One star	11/14/2024	My experience was excellent with all concerned. I was very impressed with everyone and the only issue was the one appointment not being on the schedule and being dismissed without any instructions. My daughter followed up on all questions and is in the process of making an appointment with Dr. Khan for an assessment of the final radiation treatment..
