Parkinson's, Tremor and Movement Disorders

Why Choose Sutter?

Living with movement disorders can make everyday activities challenging, with symptoms like tremors, stiffness, shakiness and balance issues affecting your quality of life. At Sutter, we prioritize comprehensive, individualized care using advanced technology and innovative treatment options tailored to each stage of your journey.

We manage all stages of chronic neurodegenerative disorders, ranging from the earliest to the most advanced and complex stages with access to local care teams and movement disorders specialists.

Our commitment to early detection and specialized treatment for chronic neurodegenerative disorders — such as Parkinson’s disease — means you have access to a full range of therapies, including medication management, physical therapy, botulinum toxin injections and surgical options like deep brain stimulation (DBS). Our multidisciplinary movement disorders teams include movement disorder specialists, neurologists, neurosurgeons and neuropsychologists who carefully evaluate each patient.

We follow a rigorous selection process for patients being considered for DBS and other advanced treatments, to ensure the highest potential for success. Our surgical expertise includes not only DBS but also gamma knife radiosurgery.

As we treat and follow you through this lifelong journey, we partner with other services such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, social workers, case managers, advanced practice pharmacists and local support groups. This integrated approach ensures that you receive compassionate care at every step.
