Dr. Sikand has been my doctor since I moved to Washington, DC more than 15 years ago. She is knowledgable above and beyond the ob-gyn field and has helped me identify and address general health issues as part of my overall well-being. She cares about her patients. She's very easy to talk to - something I find incredibly important in terms of discussing sensitive health issues.
