Dr. Zainab Khan is a board-certified physiatrist at Boomerang Healthcare in San Diego, where she specializes in non-surgical treatment of chronic pain, musculoskeletal conditions, and neurologic injuries. With over 13 years of experience, she is dedicated to restoring function, improving performance, and helping patients return to fuller, more active lives.
Her approach is rooted in individualized, evidence-based care. She works closely with each patient to understand their unique goals, provide education, and design treatment plans that may include therapies such as physical rehabilitation, injections, acupuncture, aquatic therapy, and cognitive behavioral strategies. Dr. Khan also collaborates with Boomerang’s multidisciplinary team to integrate holistic services like mental health support, chiropractic care, and massage therapy when needed.
Dr. Khan has a special clinical interest in concussion and post-concussion care, serving patients through Boomerang’s Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Program. She is also part of the Functional Restoration Program, which provides intensive, team-based treatment for patients with complex or persistent pain.
For Dr. Khan, treating pain is more than managing symptoms—it is about helping people reclaim their roles as parents, caregivers, and professionals, and supporting them in reaching their highest quality of life.
