About

Jeffrey S. Overcash, MD practices emergency medicine at Sharp Grossmont Hospital on Grossmont Center Drive in La Mesa's Grossmont medical corridor, board-certified by the American Board of Emergency Medicine. The physician's clinical research portfolio includes published trials in The New England Journal of Medicine on single-dose oritavancin for acute bacterial skin infections, contributing to the evidence base that informs post-discharge neurological and rehabilitation planning at campus providers like NeuroRestorative.

Active clinical trial participation includes Phase III antimicrobial efficacy studies, COVID-19 vaccine booster investigations, and sepsis biomarker detection using PCR/electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry on whole blood samples.
