Credentials
Michelle Goff is a licensed Physician Associate, board-certified by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants. She holds licenses in Florida, North Carolina, and California.
Her career in the medical field began in the United States Air Force over 30 years ago, where she served as a Nationally Registered Emergency Medical Technician. After her time in the service, she moved from California back to Florida where she started working as a surgical assistant in dermatology and attending college until being accepted to the University of Florida PA Program.
Michelle earned her Bachelor of Arts degree with honors from the University of Florida College of Liberal Arts, where she focused on forensic anthropology. She then earned her Master of Physician Assistant Studies at the University of Florida College of Medicine.
Michelle has worked in the specialty of dermatology for the entirety of her PA career. She provides general dermatology services to adults and pediatrics, focusing on full-body skin examinations, and removal of malignant and benign skin growths, rashes, and acne. She has been lucky enough to watch many of her patients grow to be adults, get married, and have children of their own. Those connections and service to others are what she finds so rewarding about her career.
Beyond her accomplishments in her medical career, Michelle is up for the occasional challenge and recently earned her FL-215 Life, Health, and Variable Annuities Agent license, with her eye on a Series 7 license in the future. She is also a licensed Florida Realtor and enjoys the occasional real estate transaction, home design project, and DIY renovation project as well.
In her leisure time, Michelle enjoys her home in Wesley Chapel, FL, where she has lived for 15 years. Many weekends Michelle spends time enjoying the equestrian events offered in her hometown of Ocala, FL. She loves her time outdoors with her four dogs and spa weekends at the beach and Disney with her daughter. She is fond of occasional road trips to Asheville, Charleston, and Savannah, where she partakes in exploring art galleries, mountain hikes, and antique shopping.
