UCSF Fresno is a major branch of the UC San Francisco School of Medicine. Our focus is on improving health through medical education, patient care, research and community partnerships. Every day in the large urban center and small communities of California’s agriculturally rich Central San Joaquin Valley, you can see faculty, residents and students from a world-class university at work. They are providing superior care to sick children and adults, teaching the next generation of doctors, uncovering new insights into the course and causes of disease, and contributing their skills to community service projects.
