## Why Choose Sutter?

Our interventional pain management services offer an alternative to treatments that rely heavily on medication. Whenever possible, our goal is to reduce or eliminate the need for opioids. Our specialists use minimally invasive procedures like nerve blocks, steroid injections and spinal cord stimulation (a therapy that uses gentle electrical pulses to interrupt pain signals) to target the source of pain and provide lasting relief. We treat many conditions, including back and neck pain, arthritis, nerve-related discomfort and pain after surgery.

Our clinicians in pain management, physical therapy and rehabilitation, and more work together to design a personalized care plan for you. We work closely with your primary care doctor and other providers to ensure your treatment is seamless.

We’re also among the first to introduce new treatments and technologies to Northern and Central California through research and clinical innovation. Most of our procedures are performed in outpatient settings, helping you recover more quickly and with fewer risks. By focusing on safety, recovery and results, we help you move forward with confidence and return to what matters most.
