Megan Van Ligten, MD, is a primary care physician with Keck Medicine of USC. She is passionate about helping patients manage their overall health and well-being, with a focus on preventive care and supporting patients through all stages of adulthood.

Dr. Van Ligten believes the most important aspect of the patient-doctor relationship is mutual respect.

Dr. Van Ligten enjoys spending time with her family, hiking, tending to her plants, playing with her dog and exploring new restaurants with her spouse.

My goal is to create a welcoming and empathetic space for my patients in order to understand their concerns and perspectives on their health. I strive to provide comprehensive education and care plans for each patient to help them live their healthiest lives.
