Why Choose Sutter?

We know that when a child needs surgery, the whole family needs support. And you need to know the team treating your child is capable, compassionate and on your side. Our fellowship-trained, board-certified pediatric surgeons provide emergency, hospital and outpatient care centered on children's psychological and emotional needs.

Our surgery teams perform neonatal surgery, pediatric general surgery and pediatric oncology surgery using the latest evidence-based procedures. We aim for the best possible outcomes, including which surgical method is easiest on our young patients.

When your child has to spend time in the hospital, pediatric child life specialists and clinical social workers help kids continue being kids. Our programs include playrooms with age-appropriate toys and activities, educational support for extended hospital stays, and music, art and animal-assisted therapy.
