What is ROSA—and Why Does It Matter?
Not everyone knows about ROSA, but for those considering knee replacement, it’s worth learning more.
The ROSA Knee System helps our surgical team perform procedures with remarkable precision, using real-time data to guide each step.
It’s another way SVH is bringing advanced tools to local care.

Garrick and Tracey’s Story – Local Care, When It Mattered Most
In partnership with the Sonoma Valley Hospital Foundation, we’re proud to share stories from patients and families whose lives have been touched by care at Sonoma Valley Hospital. Through our Grateful Patient Program and My Hospital campaign, we’re celebrating the people, moments, and mission that define SVH.
This month we’re sharing Garrick & Tracey’s Story.
After suffering a sudden brain aneurysm, Tracey was rushed to SVH. Her husband Garrick stayed by her side—and the Emergency Department team acted fast. Now, Tracey is walking, talking, and healing—and the couple returned to the hospital just to say thank you.
