Amit Goyal, MD, is a board-certified, fellowship-trained neurological surgeon at Link Integrated Healthcare in Santa Barbara, Camarillo, and Oxnard, California. He specializes in the diagnosis and surgical treatment of nervous system disorders, including those that impact the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves.
An expert in state-of-the-art treatment modalities, Dr. Goyal promotes endoscopic and minimally invasive techniques and robotic-assisted technology for complex brain tumors and spinal deformities.
Dr. Goyal was born and raised in Alexandria, Virginia, and graduated from Georgetown University School of Medicine in Washington, DC. He then completed his neurosurgical training at the University of Minnesota Medical Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where he served as Chief Resident.
After the completion of his residency, Dr. Goyal was selected for a highly competitive and prestigious international fellowship at the Centre for Minimally Invasive
Neurosurgery at the Prince of Wales Hospital in Sydney, Australia. As a fellow, Dr. Goyal became proficient in minimally invasive approaches for removing complex brain tumors and developed unique skills involving minimally invasive techniques and robotic technology to treat the most complicated spinal diseases.
Dr. Goyal later joined Bayhealth Medical Center in Dover, Delaware, where he dramatically grew their neurosurgery program. At Bayhealth, he helped establish a robotic spine program and build and develop the comprehensive, multidisciplinary neuro-oncology (brain tumor) program.
In his free time, Dr. Goyal enjoys traveling with his wife, three young children, and their two Labrador Huskies. He has a passion for the outdoors, particularly hiking and visiting beaches.
