Neuro-Oncology: Brain and Spinal Cord

Why Choose Sutter?

When cancer appears in the brain and spinal cord — the core of your central nervous system — you deserve an experienced medical team at your side. Because of the close collaboration between our neuroscience and cancer teams, we’ve fostered a reputation as a leader in minimally invasive treatments for brain tumors in adults and children. Our laser ablation technique can eliminate problematic brain tissue in seconds, helping you return to your normal activities within a week. We’re proud that our cancer program is named one of the nation’s top Cancer Programs of Excellence by Becker’s Hospital Review.

Our compassionate approach cares for your whole being, not just your disease. From day one, a Cancer Patient Navigator will support you and your family by coordinating services, providing education and counseling, and offering hope. Additionally, some of our locations offer integrative health options and support services like massage, music, pet therapy and spiritual practices to help manage stress and anxiety.
