Sutter Health Corporate Office, Sacramento CA

Sutter- just don’t go to any of their facilities. Corporate supports a policy of doctors engaging in a pattern and practice of not returning pages and having phone operators give medical advice. On-call doctors get paid to do nothing? This isn’t going to turn out well. Memorial hospital recently got a slap on the wrist from the joint commission for nurses taking a patient’s pain medication, discharged him/ her while in distress after surgery, not calling a doctor to help the patient. Surgeon who performed the surgery (Modesto) did nothing to help patient. Sutter is a mess and you are putting your life in jeopardy going to any of thrur facilities. Once you are dead, you are dead. Their ERs are just as bad. You should not have to go back 3-5 times for a problem to be resolved. Scam or incompetent physicians?

This is not a safe place for you to receive care. The leadership does not intervene when these matters are brought yo their attention and what can you do when your loved ones are harmed or dead? You should call you member of the assembly, ask that that this is brought up on the public safety, licensing committee (for doctors, medical facilities, and health and human services) Complaints can go to medical board, joint commission, snd department of public health. File joint commission first, copy that and put in your dph complaint, then put in word document and file with ca medical board. Also fax complaint to corporate office immediately. You will be asked if you contacted corporate. They never respond because they don’t care about you.
