Shikha Goyal, PA
San Francisco
Physician Assistant, an advanced practice degree for primary care providers who undergo extensive practical training and board certification, and are licensed to practice medicine including the full range of diagnosis, treatment, and prevention.
I enjoy partnering with my patients to best understand what health goals are important to them and any concerns they are currently having. From there I like to provide a culturally competent, comprehensive and whole-patient approach to work collaboratively with my patients to come up with plans that will best fit into their lives. I am especially passionate about preventive health, the importance of mental well being, and helping patients feel empowered while navigating the challenges that can come with chronic conditions and new health diagnoses.
