Celebrating Generosity that Expands Care

San Ysidro Health is proud to recognize the generosity of Javier and Nayelli Herrera, along with Chib and Amanda Chilekezi, whose philanthropic support helped bring two new exam rooms to life at our newest location, the Macias Family Health Center in National City. Together, their meaningful investment advances our mission to provide compassionate, accessible care to every individual and family we serve.

Building Equitable Pathways to Care

For Patients Approaching Medicare

At San Ysidro Health, older adults are a vital and growing part of our community. Thanks to a philanthropic investment from the Archstone Foundation, we are strengthening our ability to meet the complex needs of this population through proactive, equitable, and patient-centered care.

Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month

This March, San Ysidro Health proudly recognized Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month with a month‑long effort to educate, engage, and inspire our staff and community around the importance of early detection. Colorectal cancer is highly treatable—and often curable—when caught early, making awareness and screening critical to saving lives.
