COMMUNITY DESCRIPTION

Like its legendary namesake rising out of the ashes, the greater Phoenix area has emerged as one of the bright metropolitan areas of the 21st century. Known as the Valley of the Sun, the Phoenix area encompasses more than 20 incorporated cities, including Glendale, Scottsdale, Tempe, and Mesa. Recently, the Census Bureau named Arizona's Maricopa County, which includes the greater Phoenix metro area, the county with the nation's highest annual population growth. Home to more than 4 million residents where everyone has a sunny disposition, the Phoenix area also ranks as the fifth-largest city in the United States. Phoenix is a premier destination offering the best of both worlds: a growing and diverse economy and a great place to live with more than 300 sun-filled days a year and an almost endless supply of attractions including:

187 city parks, 41,000 acres of desert preserves, and 200 miles of trails

3 major professional sports teams including the Arizona Diamondbacks (MLB), the Arizona Cardinals (NFL) and the Phoenix Suns (NBA)

Host to MLB Spring Training Cactus League and the annual Fiesta Bowl

Home of the "Phoenix Open" and 185 golf courses

Host to 10 Fortune 500 company headquarters

The "Best Mexican Food North of the Border"

A family-friendly area, with the Children's Museum of Phoenix, ample youth sports and athletic leagues, the Challenger Space Center Arizona, a wide variety of school options, including public, private, magnet, and charter, the Phoenix Zoo, large water parks, SEA LIFE Arizona, and many more

The Phoenix area is also a destination for people from all over the world to receive outstanding healthcare. This is particularly true of Dignity Health's St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center - home to the world-renown Barrow Neurological Institute and The Norton Thoracic Institute - lung transplant program in the U.S. - as well as many other world-class healthcare services and teaching programs.

CREIGHTON SCHOOL OF MEDICINE:

For more than a decade, Creighton has had an academic presence in Phoenix, sending medical students to Dignity Health SJHMC for clinical rotations. That relationship expanded in 2009 when the University and St. Joseph's formally established a Creighton campus for third and fourth year students. In 2018, it was announced that Creighton would expand once again, this time opening a full four-year medical school campus in Phoenix to become the largest Catholic health professions eductor in the nation.

COMPENSATION

We offer a competitive salary and generous benefits package, including premium-free insurance options, a matched 403b, employer-funded pension plan, relocation allowance for applicable physicians, CME benefits, and malpractice insurance.
