Dr Khan oversaw the treatment of Kathy Glover when she was struck down by Steve Marchant's car in September 1998. Steve was in the process of stealing a horse from Home Farm, and was driving away when he was distracted by a phone call from his wife Kim. After taking his eyes off the road for a moment, he tried to avoid Kathy, but it was too late, and she went flying over his bonnet. Kathy spent several weeks in a coma.
After she was discharged from hospital, Kathy began to suffer from mood swings, and after a particularly vicious outburst aimed at her best friend Rachel Hughes, she went to see Dr Khan, who suggested that she see a psychologist.
