Parking & Public Transportation

Tips for Patients

Street Parking First: It’s typically cheapest and closest — just check meter rules/signs.
Public Transit: Can be faster than driving/parking downtown — especially during peak hours.
Garage Parking: Perfect backup if street spots are full — city garages are generally more predictable in price.
Please note: Parking availability, rates, and hours are subject to change. We recommend checking directly with the parking garage or the City of San Francisco for the most current information before your visit.
