Dr. John Scott Sutherland
is committed to his patient’s comprehensive dental care. He considers each treatment and procedure carefully for how it will affect your dental health and how it will affect your appearance, as well as your overall health.
After high school, Dr. Sutherland decided to pursue a vocational trade that would be useful anywhere in the world, welding. He used his experience for many things including fabricating the metal framework for the roof of a small school in the jungle of Venezuela and later he taught welding in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program in Tijuana, Mexico.
In his mid-twenties, Dr. Sutherland was ready to pursue his career as a special education teacher, but before he began student teaching he changed his career path to dentistry. Although that meant two more years of undergraduate study, he was resolute. Dr. Sutherland graduated from the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry in 2001 and one year later bought a dental practice in Redding.
Dr. Sutherland is committed to ongoing learning and development in the areas of 3D dentistry with his Cone Beam CT, dental implants, sleep apnea, cosmetic dentistry, leadership development and medical billing.
Outside of the office, Dr. Sutherland still feeds his passion for travel and enjoys hiking with his wife, Shandel. The quickest way to get Dr. Sutherland to smile and talk, is to ask him about his wife, the 25 kids in his life, his beloved Bella dog, or his passion for the Good News Rescue Mission.
