9Additional Information
Dr. Khan offers a rare dual perspective in fitness industry litigation: a board-certified orthopaedic surgeon who also owns and operates two combat sports and fitness facilities in Southern California. He can address both sides of a gym injury case — the medical questions of causation, mechanism, and impairment, and the operational questions of industry standard of care, member supervision, coaching qualifications, equipment safety, and facility policies. Dr. Khan actively coaches youth jiu-jitsu and wrestling and adult strength and conditioning classes, is an NASM-certified MMA Conditioning Specialist, and is a published author on combat sports conditioning and injury prevention. As a Qualified Medical Evaluator with formal expert witness training, he provides objective, evidence-based opinions, thorough record review, and clear, defensible reporting for plaintiff and defense counsel alike.
