UC San Diego Health gets $25M gift

The McGrath Family Foundation has donated $25 million to support the new outpatient pavilion at UC San Diego Health's Hillcrest Medical Campus, which is expected to open in 2025. 

The 250,000-square-foot, six-story McGrath Outpatient Pavilion will house specialty clinical programs, including oncology, neurosurgery, urology, ear nose and throat and orthopedics, as well as outpatient surgery operating rooms, endoscopy procedure rooms, advanced imaging, infusion and radiation oncology. 

The facility aims to support the growing demand for specialized diagnostic, treatment and surgical services. It will provide new space for multispecialty cancer clinics and infusion centers, allowing UC San Diego Health and Moores Cancer Center to expand access to cancer care. 

McGrath Outpatient Pavilion is part of phase one of the $3 billion UC San Diego Hillcrest Redevelopment Project, expected to continue over the next 10 to 15 years and will include the replacement of the current hospital. 

"UC San Diego Health has entered a period of significant expansion to increase access to the region's No. 1 healthcare provider," CEO Patty Maysent said in a Dec. 5 news release. "The McGrath Family Foundation's investment into one of the region's most cherished community assets will leave an indelible mark on our city, positively impacting the health and wellness of San Diegans for decades to come."
