Poorani Goundan, MBBS

Dr. Goundan is in excellent endocrinologist, she thoroughly explained everything to my understanding, very caring and professional

I felt very grateful to consult with a provider that was professional, thorough, kind, and clearly an expert. Thank you. My only disappointment was that after many calls to UCSF endocrinology to discuss being treated remotely and coming from a different city, and a thorough process of getting accepted into care, the doctor did not know I lived far away and came by plane. Late in the appointment she did figure this out, and adjusted some of what she chose to do, which was really nice of her, but coming from out of town is a big consideration in health care. She brought up vitamin D at least twice, and each time I told her I would like her recommendation on whether or not to take vitamin D, so I did not get my question answered at this appointment. I think maybe the doctor will answer the question at the follow-up appointment, but I did not understand why the doctor would not answer this question. She was a very kind, caring, and expert doctor, so she likely had some good reason for not answering.

Great first appointment with Dr Goundan

I'm very lucky to have Dr Goudan, she truly listens and cares about me as a patient.

The kindest, most considerate physician I have ever met.

She is the platonic ideal of what a doctor should be. She has crazy credentials and all the knowledge, but she's also super kind and warm and understandable.
