The Sharp Grossmont Hospital for Neuroscience is part of Sharp Grossmont Hospital, and will be located in the former space of our Rehabilitation Center. The entrance to the new facility will be adjacent to the main hospital entrance.
Representing the future of neurological care, the neuroscience hospital is a free-standing center located in the heart of the Sharp Grossmont campus. This new facility is dedicated to neurosurgical, neurological and comprehensive spine care that will allow patients to be treated from start to finish in one place.
As more people in our community advance in age, there will be a greater need for specialized neurological care. The hospital will not only help meet that demand, but will also serve as an extension of our growing medical services and expertise. In conjunction with our nationally recognized Comprehensive Stroke Center designation from the American Heart & Stroke Association, the Burr Heart and Vascular Center, and our new movement disorders program to treat conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, we’re advancing brain and spine health care for our region.
Sharp Grossmont is partnering with celebrated firms in the design and building industry to bring the project to life.
