I’m Dr. Smriti Singh, an emergency medicine physician and osteopath (DO) and the founder of Trailhead Wellness Medicine in San Francisco. I help active adults stay healthy enough to keep going, treating joint pain and sports injuries with prolotherapy, PRP, and osteopathic manipulation, and supporting long-term health with hormone therapy and medical weight management.

I have a deep passion for helping people feel and function at their best, not just in moments of illness, but in their everyday lives. My journey began here in the Bay Area, where my family settled in Pleasanton and I grew up attending Amador Valley High School.

After completing my undergraduate studies at NYU, I went on to earn a Master’s in Public Health from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, where I developed a global perspective on health and prevention. I then returned home to attend Touro University College of Osteopathic Medicine in Vallejo, followed by residency training in Emergency Medicine in Philadelphia.

Practicing in the ER taught me how to think quickly and act decisively in critical moments but it also revealed a deeper truth: many of the conditions I treated could have been prevented or better managed with earlier, more personalized care. Years in emergency medicine have shaped my approach and ultimately led me to build a practice focused on optimizing health, longevity, and overall quality of life.

I’m especially excited to return to my osteopathic roots by honoring the body’s inherent ability to heal and regenerate itself. As a DO, I believe in treating the whole person and using thoughtful, evidence-based modalities to support the body’s natural balance and resilience. My goal is to partner with patients to optimize wellness, prevent illness, and help them live a long and fulfilling life.
