About Phoenix, AZ:

Phoenix boasts all the amenities of a large city—including foodie destinations and cultural richness—without the high cost-of-living or overwhelming congestion of New York or Chicago. Whether you are looking to raise a family in the suburbs of the East Valley or cherished Arcadia/Paradise Valley neighborhoods, or you are looking for the hustle and bustle of exciting downtown living, Arizona proves to provide an exceptional living experience to people in all walks of life. With renowned golf-courses, botanical gardens, shopping malls, zoos, arts districts, and A+ schools, Arizonians never struggle to find a solution to their needs and hobbies. For sports enthusiasts, Arizona is home to all four major sports: NFL, NHL, NBA, and MLB. For the adventurers, the Colorado River provides opportunity for floating and fishing, various hiking trails flaunt breathtaking views, and a day-trip can help Phoenicians escape to the Grand Canyon, the red rocks of Sedona, or the pines (and snow!) up in Flagstaff. Being just a short drive to the beaches of California and Mexico, Arizona really does offer everything to its lifelong residents, and would be the perfect destination for your forever career.

About the Culture:

Dignity Health St. Joseph’s Hospital & Medical Center, as a member of CommonSpirit Health is the largest not-for-profit healthcare organization in the nation.  Our organization seeks to serve the poor and disenfranchised, while utilizing our healing ministry to promote the health of the entire patient, rather than simply treat their disease. The mission of Norton Thoracic Institute is to be a world class destination for pulmonary and thoracic care with a focus on innovation, excellence and scholarly activities.
