Affiliated with UC San Diego Health, Andrew Patel, MD practices from a primary care office at 200 W Arbor Dr on the UC San Diego Medical Center Hillcrest campus, the academic teaching hospital that anchors the Fourth Avenue medical corridor. Adult primary care visits here route lab work and advanced imaging to on-campus partners including Imaging Healthcare Specialists - Hillcrest, shortening the time between an order and a same-campus scan. Patients access the clinic through the Arbor Drive entrance on the wheelchair-accessible ground level, with parking validated through the hospital structure. In-system referrals keep complex cases within the UC San Diego Physician Network, with chest films, CT studies, and follow-up mammograms read by Ucsd Medical Center Rad inside the same 92103 hospital block. The heaviest panels here absorb post-discharge medication reconciliations, oncology-transition visits, and multi-system geriatric cases coming back from the adjacent inpatient wards - the internal medicine workload that only a hospital-embedded primary care suite sees at this volume.
