Mayo Clinic is making a major investment at its Phoenix campus. This latest move will increase the amount of clinical space by nearly 60%.
On Monday, Mayo Clinic announced a nearly $1.9 billion investment that will double the size of the campus to accommodate more patients.
A spokesperson cited the growth of the Phoenix metro area, state and region as reasons why the project is necessary. The 1.2 million-square-foot expansion will include a new procedural building, a five-floor expansion of Mayo’s specialty building, 11 new operating rooms and two new patient units with 48 beds.
Similar projects are already underway at Mayo sites in Minnesota and Florida. The expansion is slated to start this year and be completed by 2031.
“Next-generation medical care is a reality in Phoenix,” said Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego. “Today’s investment by Mayo Clinic delivers a future of health solutions which will further position Phoenix as a strong leader in biosciences, medical research, and healthcare innovation. It means more cures, advance treatments, and a superior quality of care experience for patients locally, nationally, and globally.”
