Dr. Saxena completed her medical residency at the University of Minnesota, where she received the Richard B. Carley Award, which honored her excellence in clinical research, and a Pharmacotherapy Award for her excellent insights into the treatment and management of various clinical conditions. She completed fellowship training in anti-aging, regenerative, and functional medicine through the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine.

Remaining in Minnesota, Dr. Saxena practiced at a multispecialty group until her love for milder weather drew her to Bay Area. She moved to California in 2005, joining a group practice, before opening her own practice the following year.

Since her medical school days, Dr. Saxena has maintained an interest in the management of diabetes and high blood pressure, as well as women’s health issues. Through her advanced training in these areas, she employs an evidence-based nutritional and integrative approach, with an emphasis on avoiding medical complications. Her passion to provide excellent medical care also spurred her involvement in a new specialty: Anti-Aging.

Aside from her impressive credentials, Dr. Saxena takes pride in providing exceptional care to her patients. Her patients find her bedside manner to be unequaled. Dr. Saxena and the team at Aveda Integrative Medical Center believe that true health is not merely the absence of diseases, but rather the presence of optimal physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Dr. Saxena wants to help her patients to look and feel their best.
