Dr. Khanna’s interest in rheumatology was born out of her interest towards the art of problem-solving. The challenges posed by complex cases, such as the ones typically seen in the field of Rheumatology, offer a diagnostic dilemma that she enjoys solving. Her interest in building long-lasting patient relationships as well as love for history taking and physical exam skills further solidified her interest in this field. She has been enjoying her clinical experience thus far. Furthermore, given her immense interest in medical education, she has been thrilled to be in a mentoring and teaching role.

She also enjoys traveling, trying new outdoor activities, and learning new cultures.
