Provided is a method and apparatus for forming a silicon film, which are capable of suppressing generation of a void or seam. The method includes performing a first film-forming process, performing an etching process, performing a doping process, and performing a second film-forming process. In the first film-forming process, a non-doped silicon film that is not doped with an impurity is formed so as to embed a groove of an object. In the etching process, the non-doped silicon film formed via the first film-forming process is etched. In the doping process, the non-doped silicon film etched via the etching process is doped with an impurity. In the second film-forming process, an impurity-doped silicon film is formed so as to embed the silicon film doped via the doping process.
