Steven R. Lane, M.D., MPH, FAAFP

After more than 30 years in the Family Medicine Department at PAMF Palo Alto Center, Dr. Lane transitioned to the Virtual Care Team, where he provides comprehensive and coordinated care for patients who are unable to see their primary care provider. He believes in treating each patient as a unique individual and takes the time to understand their medical history, medications, and overall health needs. Whether addressing an immediate concern or providing ongoing care during gaps in primary care availability, he is committed to ensuring continuity of care and coordination with the broader healthcare team.

In addition to his virtual practice at PAMF, Dr. Lane teaches medical and other health profession students and provides volunteer care for individuals experiencing homelessness. He also has a longstanding interest in clinical informatics, focusing on the use of health information to improve patient care, advance health information exchange, and support patient privacy.

Outside of Medicine, Dr. Lane enjoys yoga, hiking, cycling, and spending time with his family and their dogs.
