Sutter Spine Services

The spine and neck are the central connecting points for the body's skeleton, muscles and nerves. Sutter services address conditions and diseases that affect individual components and combined systems in patients of all ages. As a community healthcare system, Sutter provides pediatric and adult diagnosis and care, offering advanced diagnostic tools and the latest surgical, nonsurgical and complementary treatments. In addition, many Sutter spine specialists actively participate in research of promising new advances through the Sutter Institute for Medical Research.
