Dr Nabeel Khan and Staff
Dr. Nabeel Khan was born into a diplomatic family. One of five sons, he spent his youth in Zimbabwe, moving to the United States in the eleventh grade.
After graduating with honors from TC Williams High School, he then studied biology at George Mason University and distinguished himself.
Dr. Khan went on to study dentistry at the Medical College of Virginia, where he completed his dental school requirements in three years while not only working part-time in the hotel industry, but also completing an externship at a pediatric dentist's office and volunteering at the Northern Virginia Dental Clinic in Falls Church.
"I have always held a job, but it wasn't until I was in the hospitality industry that I learned the importance of customer service.
The dental field allows me to develop a personal relationship with my patients and enables me to really help them. In the clinic, I see patients in pain and it's very rewarding to know that I can help relieve it."
