Amol Saxena / BASS Medical Group
Indian-American podiatrist and sports medicine specialist Amol Saxena has joined BASS Medical Group, bringing extensive experience in foot and ankle surgery.
A Palo Alto native, Saxena’s practice focuses on sports medicine and the treatment of complex foot and ankle conditions, including Achilles and Peroneal tendon disorders, ankle osteochondral injuries, stress fractures such as Navicular and Jones, and midfoot injuries like Lisfranc’s.

Saxena is known for his contributions to surgical technique, including the development of the endoscopic Gastrocnemius recession and various procedures addressing Achilles tendon disorders. He has also been involved in the design of surgical instruments and classification systems now in clinical use.
In addition to his medical career, Saxena has participated in several Boston Marathons and Duathlon World Championships, offering him a distinct perspective on the demands of athletic performance and injury recovery.
He holds a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine (DPM) and a Master of Public Health (MPH), the latter of which he earned from the Geisel School of Medicine, where he recently addressed graduates as an alumni speaker.
Speaking to the graduates, Saxena encouraged them to embrace lifelong connections, reminding them, “your connections to Dartmouth are more important than AI,” while cleverly invoking former Dartmouth football coach Buddy Teevens’ interpretation of AI: “adapt and improvise”.
BASS Medical Group is a physician‑led, multi‑specialty medical network based in Walnut Creek, California, with over 200 locations across the San Francisco Bay Area and Central Valley. The group includes more than 400 providers across around 40 medical and surgical specialties, from primary care, family and internal medicine to podiatry, sports medicine, urology, oncology, general surgery and more.
