Delivering Loving Critical Care to Our Tiniest Patients

At Sutter’s nine NICUs, we provide specialized medical care and the latest in technology to babies born prematurely or with serious health conditions. Our locations are designed to provide family centered care, where parents are welcomed into the unit to participate in the treatment plan of their babies.

Our care for your infant doesn’t stop once you are discharged from the NICU. We offer a High-Risk Infant Follow-Up Program that supports your baby’s healthy growth and development and provides ongoing support and education programs for you. Each year, many of our NICUs hold popular reunions for families and their NICU care teams.

Genetics Research

Sutter Health Genetics Research
Genetics studies the genes and DNA coding that each person inherits from their parents and how these genes can lead to disease or better health. Some inherited genes cause diseases such as Tay-Sachs or sickle cell anemia, while mutations in genes can cause genetic disorders, such as Down syndrome. However, doctors also use genetics to understand which treatments may work best for an individual.
