**_Becker’s Hospital Review Named Sutter among its list of “100 Hospitals and Health Systems with Great Oncology Programs”_**

It’s estimated that [200,000 people living in California](https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11745215/) will be diagnosed with cancer this year. When someone hears the lifechanging words, “you have cancer,” it’s crucial they have access to advanced services from diagnosis to survivorship, close to home. That’s why Sutter Health is proud to be named to Becker’s Hospital Review’s 2025 list of “100 Hospitals and Health Systems with Great Oncology Programs” – an honor the not-for-profit system has received several years in a row.

This national recognition highlights Sutter’s commitment to seamlessly delivering world-class cancer services in the communities it serves. Becker’s selected hospitals based on clinical excellence, innovation, research and national accreditations.

[Sutter’s Advanced Cancer Service Line](https://www.sutterhealth.org/services/cancer) is distinguished by its integrated network of 22 cancer centers and more than 250 nationally recognized cancer specialists. Each year, more than 17,000 patients receive care guided by National Comprehensive Cancer Network® clinical pathways, which have helped reduce hospital admissions by 20 percent, helping patients recover faster, remain cancer-free and regain their best quality of life.

“Becker’s recognition reflects our dedication to maintaining the high standards of care that patients and families rely on,” says [Dr. Amanda Wheeler](https://www.sutterhealth.org/find-provider/dr-amanda-j-wheeler-1046246977), breast surgeon and chair of Sutter’s Advanced Cancer Service Line. “It takes an entire care team of oncologists, nurses, radiologists, surgeons and support staff closely coordinating to deliver the kind of clinical excellence that earns us national recognition. We’re proud to be part of a system that puts patients first and continually strives to improve outcomes.”

**What sets Sutter apart:**

-   Patients benefit from advanced therapies like CAR T-cell therapy, GammaTile neurosurgery and tattoo-free radiation that are tailored to their care needs.
-   AI-powered breast and lung cancer screening and services at more than 60 imaging locations help detect cancer earlier when they are more treatable—improving outcomes and offering patients peace of mind.
-   Multidisciplinary tumor boards and customized treatment plans ensure each patient receives care informed by the latest research and expert collaboration.
-   From 24/7 cancer support and digital concierge tools to survivorship programs and recovery companions, patients are never alone in their care journey.
-   Access to 150+ cancer clinical trials, and care informed by the latest evidence means patients benefit from the forefront of cancer innovation.

**Investing in the future of excellent cancer care:**            

Sutter is making bold investments to expand access and elevate the quality of cancer care for patients across Northern California. With a $380 million expansion at Memorial Medical Center in Modesto, a new ambulatory cancer complex in Folsom, new cancer infusion centers and radiation oncology centers, patients can benefit from more advanced treatment options closer to home.

**Advanced cancer care backed by accreditations:**

Sutter’s national accreditations reflect its commitment to delivering cancer care that meets the highest standards for quality and outcomes. Recognitions from the Commission on Cancer, the National Accreditation Program for Breast and Rectal Cancer and the American College of Radiology assure patients they’re receiving coordinated, evidence-based treatment and a consistent experience of care during their unique cancer journey.
