More than 200 national, civic, business and academic leaders gathered April 27 to break ground on the $4.3-billion, UCSF Health Helen Diller Hospital – a 15-story facility that will aggregate some of the most complex care capacity in the country in 1 city block to serve San Francisco, California, the Bay Area and beyond for coming generations.
Opening in 2030 on Parnassus Avenue, the 880,000-square-foot hospital will be the eastern cornerstone of a comprehensive, 30-year plan to transform UCSF’s flagship Parnassus Heights campus and drive innovations in care delivery, discovery and health sciences education.
The first decade of the plan pairs the new hospital with a research and academic building expected to open in 2028 on the western edge of the campus. The hospital will incorporate the latest technologies in diagnostics, robotics and surgical procedures into complex specialty care, including neurosurgery, cardiology, transplant and emergency medicine.
