Aaron T Saunders, MD

According to Dr. Saunders, the reason he got into the healthcare field was to promote healthy living and make a difference in peoples lives. My training in Internal Medicine has prepared me to diagnose and treat adults and seniors with a variety of acute and chronic medical conditions, he adds.

For two years prior to joining CenterWell, Dr. Saunders was a Primary Care Internist at El Rio Health Center in Tucson. He also spent a year as a Reviewer and Medical Consultant at Kaplan Medical, before that. In 2021, he was certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine.
