Join Dr. Saxena on Change Thrivers Radio on 9/6/2010, as she makes sense of the challenging topic of Hormone Replacement Therapy and considerations for women to suffer from hormonal imbalances.
Dr. Saxena graduated from the University of Florida College of Medicine through an honors medical program and completed her Family Practice residency at St. Vincent’s Medical Center in Jacksonville, Florida. There she served as Chief Resident and completed her certification in Low Risk Obstetrics continuing to expand her comprehensive knowledge of family medicine. She continues to maintain her Board Certification in Family Practice.
She joined a private practice where her mission was working with rural and inner-city underserved patients in Jacksonville. Caring for patients who were challenged to care for themselves, she further experienced how the power of education and respect for people far outweigh the benefits and results of any drug therapy. She is known for her ability to take intricate medical subject matter and make it understandable and actionable by patients. Combining this skill with her desire to serve people, the practice was born. ‘Seva’ is an ancient Sanskrit term that translates to ‘selfless service’ and Dr. Saxena’s original commitment to providing this type of service to the community remains as our driving force.
Through her entire educational and professional experience, Dr. Saxena believed that the ultimate goal of caring for patients was to cure disease and make them feel better. Unfortunately, she realized early on in her career that this was not happening with the standards of care which she was taught. On a mission, she returned to fundamental physiology and completed advanced training at the Institute for Functional Medicine and other nationally recognized Integrative Medicine programs.
Today, Dr Saxena brings her unique style of education to her local community to create awareness for the importance of lifestyle modification for achieving their loftiest health goals. She also speaks throughout the country educating physicians on how to implement clinically effective programs for reversing chronic disease. SevaMed Institute and the Center for Living Wellness represent the culmination of Dr. Saxena’s long-held vision for creating a life-changing place for the health-oriented community.
