Peninsula Health Care District

Peninsula Health Care District The vision of PHCD is that all District residents enjoy optimal health through education, prevention, and access to needed health care services.

Since the Peninsula Health Care District was established in 1947, the communities we serve have changed and evolved, as have the health care needs of District residents. One thing that has remained constant is the District’s unwavering commitment to the people living in San Bruno, Millbrae, Burlingame, Hillsborough, San Mateo and Foster City. The District is accountable to residents, taxpayers and community partners to ensure the health of our communities, today and into the future.
