HIDDEN VALLEY LAKE
Care center planned for Hidden Valley Lake
Sutter Health is expanding its footprint in rural Northern California with a new $5.5 million care center planned for Hidden Valley Lake, part of a broader systemwide initiative to improve access to primary and behavioral health services in rural and remote communities.
The 6,900-square-foot facility is slated to open in June 2026 and will provide urgent care, primary care, on-site lab and X-ray services, and rotating specialty care in cardiology, OB/Gyn and orthopedics.
“Currently, Lake County has only 12 primary care clinicians serving more than 67,000 residents – a shortage that contributes to wait times of up to six months for new patient appointments,” said Timothy Stephens, CEO of Sutter Lakeside Hospital, which will oversee the new care center. “This new site brings care closer to home for residents of Hidden Valley Lake and the surrounding communities and is projected to serve 3,000 new patients each year. It will also bring the strength and expertise of Sutter Health into this market – connecting more patients to an integrated system of care that includes urgent, primary and specialty services. That means earlier diagnoses, better management of chronic conditions and improved long-term health for the region.”
“This care center helps close critical care gaps by expanding access to both primary and urgent care,” said Elyse Donald, M.D., medical director of primary care ambulatory clinics at Sutter Lakeside Hospital. “We expect to serve 11,000 patients annually – a 30% increase over what we’re able to see today. That kind of reach allows us to deliver more timely, comprehensive care and make meaningful progress toward improving health outcomes in our community.”
By integrating the new site into Sutter’s broader system of care, patients will gain streamlined access to specialists and services, enabling earlier diagnoses, improved chronic disease management and better overall health outcomes. Sutter Health is a not-for-profit health system serving Northern California and California’s Central Coast.
