Twenty-five years ago, in June 1987, a crew of just 47 physicians and 225 allied health employees rallied to formally launch Mayo Clinic in Arizona. Mayo Clinic in Arizona now spans two campuses, comprising more than 400 acres of land, and has added two research buildings on the Scottsdale campus and a 244-bed hospital, a specialty clinic, housing for transplant and cancer patients and leased space for a child care center, a hospice and hotel on the Phoenix campus. Mayo's presence in Scottsdale has made Scottsdale a strong destination nationally for medical care.
Plans were also announced in September 2011 for development of a branch of Mayo Medical School, called the Mayo Medical School - Arizona Campus. Located on Mayo's Scottsdale campus, this branch of Mayo Medical School will offer both a medical degree granted by Mayo and a master's degree in the Science of Health Care Delivery through ASU. The school is expected to open in 2015.
