Chest Pain Assessment
Chest pain should never be ignored. Dr Kamal Khan offers rapid private cardiac evaluation with same-day ECG and specialist review to identify the cause and provide clear next steps — often within days, not weeks.
Understanding chest pain
Chest pain has many possible causes, ranging from the heart and blood vessels to the lungs, digestive system, or musculoskeletal system. While not all chest pain is serious, it is a symptom that always warrants proper assessment — particularly if it is new, recurrent, brought on by exertion, or associated with other symptoms.
Dr Kamal Khan is a Consultant Interventional Cardiologist with over twenty years of experience assessing chest pain. He takes a structured, thorough approach to identify or rule out a cardiac cause, giving you clear answers and a clear plan.

What your assessment involves
What happens at your appointment
At your first consultation, Dr Khan will take a detailed history of your symptoms — including when they occur, how long they last, and what brings them on or relieves them — alongside a physical examination and review of your cardiovascular risk factors.
Where appropriate, an ECG can often be performed and reviewed the same day. If further investigation is needed, this is usually arranged promptly at the same hospital, and Dr Khan will explain the findings and next steps clearly at every stage.
