Home to the only National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer center in Orange County, UCI Health offers top-tier care for complex conditions. Its flagship, UCI Medical Center, includes the county’s only level I trauma center, level II pediatric trauma center, and a regional burn center. Leading over 400 clinical trials, UCI Health provides patients with access to novel therapies. It has earned top rankings, including being named one of America’s best hospitals in 2023 by U.S. News & World Report and a world’s best hospitals by Newsweek for 2024. UCI Health recently opened the nation’s first all-electric central utilities plant and enrolled participants in a new expanded access protocol for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
