Pioneering the Standard of Modern Healthcare
We unite distinguished university-trained physicians, advanced on-site diagnostics, and unhurried human compassion to provide care that transforms lives.
A Reaction Against Assembly-Line Medicine
In the early 2000s, clinical medicine drifted into 8-minute appointments, bureaucratic roadblocks, and depersonalized symptom management. AuraMed was created to reclaim the true heart of medicine.
When our founder, Dr. Sarah Mitchell, opened AuraMed at 450 Sutter Street in 2008, her mandate was simple: every patient would be treated with the thoroughness and empathy one would extend to their own family member.
Today, AuraMed encompasses 42 board-certified specialists spanning General Practice, Cardiology, Dermatology, Pediatrics, Orthopedics, and Women's Health. We offer same-day accredited laboratory and imaging services so that patients leave our clinic with answers, relief, and a definitive path forward.
