Alberto J. Panero, D.O.

Regenerative Orthopedics Specialist & Sports Medicine Specialist located in Sacramento, CA

When you suffer a musculoskeletal injury, your body makes every effort to heal itself. This natural healing process is augmented at The BIOS Orthopedic Institute, located in Sacramento, California. Dr. Alberto J. Panero offers biomechanical and interventional approaches to promote long-term healing. The practice treats your symptoms, as well as delving into the root cause of the problem.

What types of injuries can Dr. Panero treat?

When you experience an injury to soft tissue, such as muscle, ligaments or cartilage, your body has its own repair system. But, this system can be compromised due to aging, blood flow restriction, or other issues. Your body then finds itself unable to heal, or the natural healing process is very slow. As a result, you experience persistent pain, swelling, weakness, or dysfunction in certain joints.

  • Neck pain
  • Back pain

I was very happy with Dr. Panero. He took his time to listen to me and evaluate me. Then he went over all my options and answered all my questions. I am very glad I was referred to him!

Finally after 3 months of being brushed off, I found a Doctor who cared to take an extra minute to treat me as an individual and listen. I saw several doctors without a diagnosis and I now have that and a plan of care. Truly grateful for Dr . Panero!!! Very Thorough.

Dr. Panero is an amazing physician who truly cares about the wellbeing of his patients. His entire team is dedicated, thorough, and professional who makes sure all appointments go smoothly even with the ongoing pandemic. Dr. Panero recommended PRP for my elbow tendinitis and truly advocated for me to get the treatment I needed to improve my chronic pain. I am so grateful to be one of Dr. Panero’s patients!
