Anna Askari, MD
Aliso Viejo
Doctor of Medicine, a common medical school degree for physicians. MDs at One Medical typically specialize in family medicine, internal medicine, geriatrics or pediatrics.
As a family physician, I love taking care of patients of all ages in the context of their family and community. My primary goal is to combine my evidence-based allopathic medical training with my additional functional and integrative medicine training to provide patient-centered care by creating a safe space for my patients to ask questions and discuss concerns about their health and wellness. I’m particularly interested in the areas of women’s health (including IUDs/Nexplanon), preventive medicine, patient education, assisting in lifestyle changes, de-prescribing, pediatrics, senior care, and in-office procedures in all areas of primary care.
How I stay healthy and happy
Advocating for my patients outside of the exam room through my work as a board member of the California and American Academy of Family Physicians' Board of Directors. Volunteering for the underserved, cooking, baking, strength training, biking, hiking, and spending time with my family and friends discovering new places to eat.
