Claude Hemphill, M.D.

Neurointensivist

Dr. Claude Hemphill serves as the director of the Neurocritical Care Program at San Francisco General Hospital Medical Center. Hemphill received his medical degree from Emory University and completed his residency in neurology and fellowships in critical care medicine and neurocritical care/stroke at UCSF. In addition to caring for patients with stroke and traumatic brain injury, Hemphill has a special research interest in intracerebral hemorrhage. His work on the subject has been funded by the National Institutes of Health and published in numerous medical journals. Hemphill is a member of various professional societies, including the American Academy of Neurology, the American Stroke Association and the Society of Critical Care Medicine. He is also a founding director of the Neurocritical Care Society.
