Private Cardiologist at Spire Manchester Hospital, Didsbury

Why here

Why see Dr Khan at Spire Manchester

A full interventional cardiology service alongside ECG, echocardiography, Holter monitoring and exercise stress testing, all under one roof.

Same-day access to MRI, CT, ultrasound and X-ray imaging, so further cardiac investigation rarely means a separate visit.

A direct referral pathway to cardiac surgeons for patients whose care needs to progress beyond cardiology alone.

Easy access from the M56, M60 and M62, and around 10 minutes from Manchester Airport — convenient if you're travelling in for your appointment.

Your visit

What to expect at your appointment

No GP referral is needed to see Dr Khan privately at Spire Manchester — self-funded and insured patients can book directly, either through Spire's booking system or via Dr Khan's enquiry form.

On arrival, self check-in is available via the hospital's tablet system, so you can get straight to your appointment. Dr Khan will take a full history and, where appropriate, arrange initial cardiac diagnostics such as an ECG or echocardiogram during the same visit.

If more detailed imaging is needed — MRI, CT or ultrasound — Spire Manchester's same-day diagnostic service means this can often be arranged without booking a separate trip. For patients whose care requires interventional treatment, Dr Khan can refer directly to cardiac surgical colleagues, and the hospital's onsite critical care unit supports more complex procedures.
