ORTHOPEDICS AND REHABILITATION
Introduction
At Sonoma Valley Hospital (SVH), we are dedicated to delivering comprehensive, patient-centered orthopedic and rehabilitative care that restores mobility, reduces pain, and improves lives. In 2024, our orthopedic team performed over 475 surgeries, while our rehabilitation programs supported more than 21,000 patient visits— underscoring the critical role these services play in the health of our community.

The Need
We specialize in advanced procedures, including robotic joint replacement surgeries for the hip, knee, shoulder, hand, and ankle. Our off-site Sonoma Valley Hand and Physical Therapy clinic offers a full range of physical, occupational, and vestibular therapies. To continue delivering exceptional care and remain a leader in orthopedic innovation, we need your support.
This campaign will fund vital upgrades in technology, equipment, and rehabilitation services—ensuring patients receive the highest quality care from surgery through full recovery.
Orthopedic conditions—such as joint pain, fractures, sports injuries, and arthritis—are among the leading causes of pain, disability, and limited mobility. Timely, effective treatment and rehabilitation are essential to restoring patients’ quality of life.
SVH is a trusted provider of orthopedic care, with a 4.9 out of 5 patient satisfaction rating and recognized expertise in:
• Joint Replacement Surgery – Including hips, knees, shoulders, and ankles
• Sports and Trauma Injuries – Offering both surgical and non-surgical care
• Rehabilitation Services – Comprehensive physical and occupational therapy, stroke recovery, and balance therapy
• Pediatric and Occupational Health Therapies
However, increasing demand, aging equipment, and evolving treatment methods make it essential to invest in:
◦ Advanced Surgical Technology
Replacement of our 10-year-old Stryker operating room system, which is critical for high-precision, minimally invasive surgeries that improve outcomes and reduce recovery times.
◦ State-of-the-Art Rehab Equipment
Upgraded physical therapy tools and modalities that support faster, safer recovery and a more personalized rehabilitation experience.
◦ Expanded Rehabilitation Services
Enhanced space and resources at our therapy center to meet growing community needs and accommodate evolving therapeutic practices.
