Dr. David Saxton enjoys the variety in orthopedics. He has a strong interest in sports medicine, but also treats general orthopedic needs. As a result, he performs a variety of procedures, including knee and shoulder scopes, fracture repair, knee and shoulder replacements, and ACL reconstruction. As part of his commitment to sports medicine, he provides sideline coverage at area high school games and was Head Team Physician for the OKC Barons.
When it comes to patients, Dr. Saxton treats them as if family, advising them as if they were his own family member. Managing expectations and helping patients to understand what to realistically expect when they have recovered, is absolutely essential to a good outcome.
Dr. Saxton attended the United States Air Force Academy, where during his senior year, he became a national champion in parachuting. He has also spent time as both a jumpmaster and instructor in parachuting. His calm and composed nature may come as a result of all those jumps.
Before becoming a physician, Dr. David Saxton was a hospital administrator, it was during this time socializing with physicians at the hospital, that he first considered becoming a physician himself.
Dr. Saxton and his wife, Dr. Elisa Crouse, enjoy staying active and being outdoors.

He is always so kind. I could get my knee injections closer to my home, but I prefer to drive 3 hours because his placement seems to work longer and are almost pain free when given.
Great doctor.
So helpful. Wasn’t rushed or staring into a computer screen. He was present, listened, thoroughly assessed and discussed my situation. Timely processing at all staff levels. Highly recommend!
Dr. Saxton provided exceptional care during my knee replacement a year ago. I am grateful for his expertise and the trust I placed in him for this procedure. He thoroughly explained every aspect of the process, ensuring I felt informed and confident in my decision.
Explained options very well. Comfortable with them
He was great and didn’t sugarcoat anything. Told me the options for my knee and we went from there with for a torn meniscus. Glad l did it. I’m still healing, but l can feel the difference in my knee and no more hobbling in pain. Thanks Dr. Saxton.
David was nothing short of amazing. I was nervous going in, but he explained everything, reassured me, and treated me like more than just a patient. The transformation from before to after surgery is unbelievable. I’m healing well, feeling better than ever, and so grateful for his expertise and kindness. I hope to not see him again for another surgery, but if I do I know I am in very good hands.
Great visit. Super nice and informative.
Nice, friendly! Appointment was quick and easy.
Dr Saxton is a true professional and communicator. After, his evaluations, he provides options and solutions.
