Abrazo Arizona Heart Hospital Launches Largest Expansion in Its History


Investment Expands Inpatient and Procedural Capacity to Meet Rising Demand for Cardiovascular Care

The Abrazo Arizona Heart Hospital in Phoenix announced last week that it is undertaking the largest expansion in its history. The new construction will add inpatient and procedural capacity to serve more Arizonans in need of heart and vascular care.


Meeting Arizona's Growing Demand for Heart Care

Abrazo explained that the expansion is necessary to support Arizona's continued population growth, which is driving increased demand for cardiovascular services. The added capacity will allow the hospital to not only treat more patients requiring cardiac, vascular, and critical care, but also continue its participation in clinical research and innovation.



Part of a Multi-Year Investment Strategy

In its press release, Abrazo describes the expansion as the latest phase of ongoing, multi-year investments intended to advance care and meet the evolving healthcare needs of communities across the state. The hospital did not report an anticipated completion date for the project.
