Rajan goyal, M.D., FCCP
Pulmonary & Critical Care Specialist ABIM Board Certified
Dr. Goyal, Kern County’s sole interventional pulmonologist, pioneers cutting-edge medical advancements, including Endobronchial Ultrasound-guided lymph node biopsies, sparing patients from invasive procedures like mediastinoscopy. His expertise extends to Electromagnetic Navigation Bronchoscopy for lung nodule biopsies, a safer alternative to CT-guided biopsies, and fiducial markers for precise lung cancer radiation therapy.
Beyond these, Dr. Goyal excels in various interventional pulmonary procedures, such as pleurx catheters for managing pleural effusions at home and intrabronchial valves for extended air leak relief. He’s a trailblazer in lung cancer diagnostics, pleural effusions, pulmonary emboli, and more, bringing advanced care typically found at larger institutions to our small-town Bakersfield.
Dr. Goyal earned his medical degree from Government Medical College, Amritsar, India, completed residency at the University of Toledo Medical Center, and pursued fellowship training in Pulmonary and Critical Care medicine at the same institution.
His journey includes roles at Mercy Hospital in Springfield, Missouri, and eventually, he partnered with Dr. Syed Alam in Bakersfield before founding Atlas Medical Consultants in October 2022.
