About UCSF Health - UCSF MyChart

UCSF is the short name for University of California San Francisco, UCSF Health is a world-class healthcare system rooted in San Francisco and renowned for its cutting-edge patient care, groundbreaking research, and forward-thinking education. At its core is a mission to advance health globally—whether through compassionate bedside care, pioneering discoveries, or training the next generation of clinicians and scientists. UCSF Health brings together leading experts across almost every medical specialty, treating complex conditions and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in treatment and diagnostics.

As the clinical arm of UC San Francisco, UCSF Health includes multiple hospitals and clinics that together form a network of care united under one brand. This family includes UCSF Helen Diller Medical Center at Parnassus Heights, UCSF Medical Centers at Mount Zion and Mission Bay, UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals (San Francisco and Oakland), Langley Porter Psychiatric Hospital and Clinics, Saint Francis and St. Mary’s Hospitals, and more. These facilities collectively offer comprehensive care across age groups and specialties.

National Recognition and Areas of Excellence

UCSF Health consistently ranks among the best hospitals in the nation. In the 2025–2026 U.S. News & World Report rankings, it tied as the No. 1 adult hospital in California and led the state in areas such as cancer care, geriatrics, neurology and neurosurgery, pulmonology, and rheumatology. Nationally, it placed in the top 10 for seven adult specialties—including cancer, ophthalmology, orthopedics, and more.

Patients often seek UCSF because of its strength in treating difficult or rare conditions—ranging from neurological disorders to sophisticated cancer therapies. The system also hosts the UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center, one of just 57 facilities in the U.S. with an official NCI “Comprehensive” designation. Located across multiple campuses (Mission Bay, Mount Zion, Parnassus), it integrates research, patient care, and population health to lead in prevention, precision treatment, and survivorship care.

A Legacy of Innovation

What sets UCSF Health apart is its seamless blend of innovation and care. As part of a university that’s home to Nobel laureates and pioneering research, UCSF continually turns scientific breakthroughs into real-world treatments. From neuroscience and genomics to stem cell and cancer research, UCSF’s discoveries often redefine how medical breakthroughs reach patients.

Its service model—a tight collaboration between university researchers and clinicians—is particularly powerful when it comes to complex challenges. That integrated approach was on display during public health crises like HIV/AIDS and pandemic response, where UCSF’s partnership with public institutions helped shape early testing and treatment standards.

Serving Through Education and Community Commitment

Beyond hospitals and clinics, UCSF Health is deeply connected to its surroundings—educationally, clinically, and socially. It nurtures future healthcare professionals across schools of medicine, nursing, pharmacy, and dentistry.

The system also includes affiliate facilities like San Francisco General Hospital, the San Francisco VA Medical Center, and UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland—expanding access to underserved communities and reinforcing its public health mission.

In summary, UCSF Health isn’t just a medical system—it’s a leader in care, a hub for innovation, and a center committed to serving communities both locally and globally. Whether you’re coming for a routine checkup, specialized care, or cutting-edge treatment, UCSF Health brings expertise, compassion, and vision to your health journey.
