Hello macaonghus and thank you for your question.
Without doubt the University of California, San Francisco Medical
Center, is the top hospital for colon cancer treatment in the San
Francisco, Bay Area. It is rated 9th out of the USA`s top 50
hospitals for the treatment of cancer.
(It is also ranked 9th in the USA for treatment of digestive disorders)
There are no other hospitals in the San Francisco area that rank in
the top 50 for treatment of cancer. However I have listed some other
hospitals that also specialize in the treatment of cancer within a 5
mile radius of the Bay Area of San Francisco.
