The Value of Primary Care at Sansum Clinic
In today’s complex healthcare environment, choosing the right primary care provider (PCP) is vital. At Sansum Clinic, now part of Sutter Health, our new primary care team model enhances healthcare delivery and patient satisfaction by combining the care of primary care doctors and Advanced Practice Clinicians (APCs), such as nurse practitioners (NPs) and physician assistants (PAs), which are highly trained professionals who diagnose, treat, and emphasize disease prevention.

Expanded Access to Care
Our primary care team model gives you access to more clinicians, increasing the availability of appointments, reducing wait times and making it easier for patients to receive timely care.
Seamless Access to Specialists
Sansum primary care teams work with an integrated team of highly skilled specialists. This collaboration enables timely referrals, streamlined communication, and continuity of care for any specialized needs. MyChart, our electronic health record, provides one place for our patients and our clinicians to coordinate care.
Comprehensive Diagnostic Support
With in-house diagnostic and imaging services, our primary care teams have direct access to accurate and timely results. This leads to faster diagnoses, reduced delays in treatment and fewer administrative hurdles for patients.
Comprehensive Care
A diverse care team with a broad range of expertise and knowledge combined with collaboration on complex cases leads to more well-rounded care of patients, including focusing on prevention, chronic disease management, and wellness strategies tailored to your unique needs. APCs often spend more time with patients, which allows for greater tailoring of treatment plans and care strategies designed for each patient's unique situation.
Studies confirm that patients with a dedicated PCP experience better health outcomes, fewer hospitalizations, and lower healthcare costs. With a Sansum PCP, you benefit from faster access to expert care and continuity of treatment plans. Choosing a Sansum PCP means more than convenience—it’s about building a trusted partnership for your lifelong health journey.
