Chandler Doctor Arrested on Felony Sexual Abuse and Assault Charges

Investigators point to matching patient accounts and post-visit messages as key corroboration with possible review by the Arizona Medical Board.

Overview

  • Dr. Hassan Khan was arrested at his Gilbert home on Wednesday, July 8, 2026, and is charged with felony sexual assault and sexual abuse tied to patient exams.
  • The alleged incidents involve at least two patients who reported exams in January and February 2025 at American Medical Associates in Chandler.
  • Police and court papers say the victim accounts share striking details — including Khan asking “Do you mind,” contacting patients from unlisted personal numbers, and references to his wife’s sexuality — that investigators cite as corroboration.
  • Khan’s attorney says one relationship was consensual and has argued the conduct may be unethical but not criminal, and Khan has told investigators he is communicating with the Arizona Medical Board.
  • A judge released Khan on a $75,000 cash bond with his passport surrendered and set a July 15, 2026, court date, and the case could lead to both criminal proceedings and a state licensure review that affects patient safety oversight.
