In 1907, Dr. James Hogan established the Hogan Hospital at Virginia Street and Sonoma Boulevard in Vallejo. A few years later, the hospital was sold to Tobe Williams, who in 1921 founded a new facility to replace Hogan Hospital. The new Vallejo General Hospital operated at its Tennessee Street location until 1969, when it moved to a new home by Lake Chabot. Vallejo General joined Sutter Health in 1984 and became Sutter Solano Medical Center.[1][2]
The Sutter Solano Cancer Center opened in 2005 and is accredited by the American College of Surgeons' Commission on Cancer.[1][3] As members of the Sutter Cancer Research Consortium, Sutter Solano participates in the National Cancer Institute's Cancer Research Network.[4] In 2017, SSMC partnered with Touro University California in Vallejo to open a mobile diabetes education center.[5]
SSMC received an "A" grade for patient safety from The Leapfrog Group in 2024.[6] In 2020, SSMC received the Gold Quality Achievement Award from the American Heart Association for high quality heart failure care.[7]
