## Why Choose Sutter?

Hip pain has many causes, from osteoarthritis to injuries and accidents. Nearly 1 in 4 older adults have pain from osteoarthritis in the hip. Meanwhile, among young people, athletes like dancers and gymnasts who move their hips in many directions are at greater risk of hip injury.

Treatment for your hip pain depends on your age, fitness level and needs. Your team will work with you to determine an approach based on your injury and your goals. We offer a range of noninvasive options to increase strength and reduce inflammation, including physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications and injections. If you’ve tried nonsurgical alternatives but are still dealing with an injury or severe arthritis, our orthopedic surgeons perform common [hip replacement surgeries](https://www.sutterhealth.org/services/hip-replacement) that can help ease pain and restore mobility.

At Sutter, you get top-performing teams committed to helping you heal. We’ve received 10 top hospital performance rankings from U.S. News & World Report, two for hip fracture procedures and eight for hip replacements.
