Arizona has long been known as a place to heal because of its warm, dry climate.   So it’s no surprise that healthcare is tops in Phoenix.

Healthcare is Tops in Phoenix

Statewide, Arizona residents and visitors are served by 129 hospitals in 14 counties.   Since 1990, Arizona hospital employment growth has significantly outpaced the annual employment growth of hospitals nationally. During that time, Arizona hospital employment soared 46 percent while hospital employment nationwide increased 24 percent.

Phoenix is also a progressive city when it comes to healthcare policies and procedures, and recently became the second city in Arizona (after Tucson in 2003) to allow hospital-visitation rights to unmarried gay or straight couples that live together.
