About
Dr. Kathryn Saxton spent more than a decade at Palo Alto Medical Foundation before opening her own practice. She built it around one conviction: patients deserve real time and genuine attention. Her background spans conventional family medicine, osteopathic manipulation, integrative health, and functional medicine. She holds dual board certifications from the American Board of Family Medicine and the American Board of Integrative Medicine. The practice weaves together four disciplines in each patient relationship. Dr. Saxton conducts 90-minute intake visits, constructing a life timeline from birth to present to surface early stressors shaping current health. She offers same-day appointments, telemedicine, house calls, and around-the-clock access by phone, text, or email. Her integrative services include nutritional counseling, hormone balance evaluation, stool microbiome testing, and osteopathic manipulation techniques such as cranio-sacral therapy, muscle energy, and counter-strain. She holds staff privileges at Washington Hospital, El Camino Hospital, and Stanford Hospital, and she serves as Adjunct Assistant Clinical Professor at both Touro University and Western University of Health Sciences.
