Jennifer A. Saam, DPM, FACFAS

Originally from upstate New York, Dr. Saam graduated first in her class at Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine in Philadelphia and went on to complete an additional three years of specialty residency training at Swedish Medical Center in Seattle. Interests include sports medicine, biomechanics, and pediatric foot problems.

Through years of competitive running and Nordic skiing, Dr. Saam has first-hand knowledge of the aches and pains experienced by athletes. She races regularly and competes on the women’s 50’s national cross-country team for Club Northwest. During the winter she is an avid nordic skier and enjoys racing in ski marathons as well as enjoying the snowy trails at Snoqualmie Pass.

Dr. Saam joined PacMed in 2024 after nearly two decades in private practice. She looks forward to continuing her focus on high-quality patient care, while being part of a team at PacMed. You may schedule an appointment with her in Issaquah or Renton by calling (888) 472-2633. In this new role, she looks forward to seeing patients of all ages, focusing on non-surgical care.

Dr. Saam's goal for every patient is to relieve their symptoms by giving practical advice, always starting with the simplest, most straightforward conservative treatment first. I have a passion for working with runners. As a lifelong competitive runner and Nordic skier, I draw on my extensive personal experience when talking with patients.
