At UC, we are driven by a relentless pursuit of excellence in health care and a boundless commitment to helping Californians from every community. It’s the foundation of everything we do.
We have specialists in more than 150 areas of medicine, and we care for 2.5 million patients each year, including people from 99 percent of California's ZIP codes. With that volume and experience, you get health care that’s drawn from years of experience and the most current practices.
From trauma and transplants to stroke care and the most fragile newborns, UC delivers the essential, highly specialized care that Californians count on. We’re more than an academic health system — we’re your community.
We know it’s people that make our medical centers the best in the world.
At UC, we spend billions on staff health care, retirement benefits, and safety mandates. And we’re proud to offer nurses some of the highest salaries in the nation.
Five Comprehensive Cancer Centers
We have five National Cancer Institute- Designated (NCI) Comprehensive Cancer Centers across UCH. No other health system in the U.S. has this many. By joining forces, our cancer centers discover—including through clinical trials—new treatment options faster to improve your cancer care.
University of California Health Pediatrics
When your child needs complex care, you want pediatric experts up to date on the latest treatment options, including clinical trials. At our children’s hospitals, we bring the same level of innovation and expertise to our youngest patients as we do our oldest.
Our four children’s hospital campuses are here for you and your family.
