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.

Dr. Panero treats most musculoskeletal injuries. Some of his specialties include:

  • Neck pain
  • Back pain
  • Disc herniations
  • S.I. joint pain
  • Facet arthropathy
  • Sciatica/nerve impingement
  • Neuropathy

He’s also well-equipped for musculotendinous issues, including:

  • Bursitis
  • Tendonitis and tendon tears
  • Tennis and golfer’s elbow
  • de Quervain’s wrist
  • Achilles and patellar
  • Rotator cuff
  • Muscular tears
  • Hamstring
  • Quadricep
  • Biceps
  • Shoulder instability
  • Ulnar collateral ligament
  • Scapholunate ligament

Also see him for bone and cartilage issues like:

  • Arthritis

I really appreciate Dr. Panero’s skill and expertise, as well as his focus, deep active listening, and clear communication about next steps. Thank you so much!

Dr. Panero is extremely professional and takes the time to explain in detail his diagnosis and opinion. He is also willing to listen to your concerns and needs.(Some orthopedic doctors I’ve meet with have not been as open minded.) I really like his approach to rehab and regeneration. It is refreshing to not have a Dr. want to immediately operate or medicate you. Nice courteous staff, reasonable wait time and the office is very accessible with a parking garage. Parking fee, I paid $1 for 30 mins, cash only.

I just had my first visit with Dr. Panero and found him to be knowledgeable and personable. I appreciate the fact that he was straightforward with my options for treatment, which are limited due to the nature of my orthopedic problem. I will continue with his recommended injections.

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!
