    Skilled Stroke Care

    Stroke is the nation’s leading cause of adult disability, and can take a tremendous toll on your physical and emotional health. At the Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento, we provide expert emergency stroke care using advanced imaging technology to quickly and accurately diagnose a stroke and determine the best treatment approach:

    • 50% of our patients being treated for acute stroke symptoms received a thrombolytic medication in less than 45 minutes from the time they entered our hospital.
    • For our acute stroke patients undergoing thrombectomy treatment, 91% of our patients had substantial cerebral reperfusion restored.

    Our highly experienced team strives to provide the most innovative and sophisticated care possible to you and your family in a warm, caring environment.

    We offer a full range of advanced stroke care services including:

    • Access to surgeons skilled at using microsurgery to clip aneurysms, and interventional neuroradiologists who can treat aneurysms through endovascular coiling techniques.

    • Access to clot-dissolving medications, antithrombotics and anticoagulation therapies.
