Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center

Student Placements

Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center is happy to provide opportunities for students from academic programs to receive clinical or job-related experiences.  Responsibility for the care of patients assigned to students and work projects is retained by the department where the student is placed on the Zuckerberg San Francisco General campus or affiliated program sites. A student placement does not apply to the University of California at San Francisco (UCSF) medical students enrolled in clerkships or classes. Whether you are a student, school, faculty or potential preceptor, please look at the area below to figure out how to begin. Thank you for your interest in SFGH!
