UC San Diego Health''s Hillcrest Medical Center campus at 200 West Arbor Drive is the practice base for Stacy Williams, DPT, whose role embeds physical therapy into the inpatient-to-outpatient transition workflow at the academic teaching hospital that anchors the neighborhood''s medical district. The hospital-based PT role at Hillcrest Medical Center at UC San Diego Health puts the caseload squarely on the rehabilitation side of a Level I trauma and teaching hospital environment. Treatment planning runs through an interdisciplinary team workflow that spans neurosurgery, orthopedics, oncology, and burn and wound care departments on the Hillcrest campus. Post-operative spine rehabilitation for patients of surgeons including Bawa Maneesh MD generates multi-phase mobility and strength programs handled on this floor. Post-ICU rehabilitation for patients recovering from stroke, traumatic brain injury, or prolonged mechanical ventilation defines the most demanding work on the caseload.
