Our Story

Prior to starting their concierge practice, Dr. Ando and Dr. Saxton each worked for over a decade at the Palo Alto Medical Foundation practicing conventional medicine. During their time at PAMF, they recognized that an important dimension of health was missing from the conventional medical model. Building on their strong foundation in traditional medicine, both Dr. Ando and Dr. Saxton pursued a second board certification in Integrative Medicine. This training has allowd them to weave the “integrative pillars of health” into highly personalized care plans for their patients. These pillars include nutrition, movement, restorative sleep, passion and purpose, social connection, and effective stress management. In partnership with evidence-based conventional medicine, these integrative principles create a more comprehensive approach to optimizing health and overall well-being.

In October 2020, Dr. Ando and Dr. Saxton joined forces to create a practice where they can share their common approach to patient wellness.
