About
Hope Saxon, AGNP-C, is an Adult Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner, and
is delighted to be starting her career at Sansum and Sutter Heath. She is a proud Santa
Barbara native, and feels honored to be able to serve the community she grew up in.
Because her degree is in Adult and Gerontological care, she is passionate about
helping people stay healthy and happy as they age.

She’s currently trying to find the perfect recipe for sourdough bread and training for the LA Marathon! Hope graduated Cum Laude from Loyola Marymount University with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Ethics in 2017, and in 2020, she graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Pennsylvania with her Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
