Orthopedics
Sutter Davis Hospital

Sutter’s orthopedic care combines experienced medical skill, exceptional facilities and leading-edge technology with a highly personal approach that addresses the patient's and family's needs. Except in cases of trauma, care typically begins with an office exam and diagnostic testing performed at Sutter Diagnostic Imaging, Davis. The orthopedic surgeon can decide the best course of treatment once the exact nature and location of the underlying problem has been determined.
