Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla
A Premier Destination for Caring and Innovation
Scripps vision has always been fueled by generosity. Founded with a philanthropic gift from Ellen Browning Scripps, our nonprofit health system has grown into a leader in health care, thanks to the ongoing support of the San Diego community. Today, we look to our community once again to help us shape the future of care and continue our mission of innovation, compassion and excellence.
Opening June 2025, the new North Tower at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla stands as a premier destination for compassionate care and groundbreaking innovation. Designed with our patients at the center of everything we do, it is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and facilities to provide the highest quality of care today, tomorrow and beyond.
We invite you to the future of health care in San Diego.
