Every year, more than 100,000 patients are diagnosed and treated at Mayo Clinic in Arizona. Approximately 74% of these patients are from Arizona, and 1% come from other countries.
Appointments at Mayo Clinic can be made directly or through physician referral. Most patients make their own appointments.
In 1993, Mayo Clinic opened the Samuel C. Johnson Medical Research Building on the Scottsdale campus. Here scientists conduct medical research in promising fields such as molecular genetics, cell and molecular biology. The Mayo Clinic Collaborative Research Building (MCCRB) was added in 2005, and is adjacent to the Johnson Buidling. The MCCRB houses Mayo Research business offices, researchers and investigational labs plus offices for Mayo Clinic's strategic partners, the Translational Genomic Research Institute (TGen), Arizona State University (ASU) and InNexus Biotechnology.
Ongoing clinical research trials at Mayo Clinic offer patients access to new investigational treatments before they become FDA-approved and commercially available.
Mayo Clinic is committed to educating the next generation of physicians. Each year, more than 200 residents, fellows and medical student clerks complete educational assignments at Mayo Clinic.
The five-story outpatient clinic on the Scottsdale campus includes approximately 300 exam and procedure rooms, an outpatient surgery center equipped for general anesthesia, a full-service laboratory, a pharmacy, a patient-education library, an endoscopy suite, a 188-seat auditorium for patient- and physician-education programs and a multilevel parking garage.
A concourse level offers amenities and services to patients, such as a gift shop and a lounge area with televisions, telephones and vending machines.
A 124-room hotel, Courtyard by Marriott, is located on the Scottsdale campus.
Mayo Clinic Hospital is located at 56th Street and Mayo Boulevard (north of Bell Road) in northeast Phoenix. Mayo Clinic patients who require hospitalization are admitted to Mayo Clinic Hospital and are cared for by Mayo Clinic physicians. The seven-story facility has 244 licensed beds and full emergency room/urgent care services.
Also on the Phoenix campus is the Mayo Clinic Specialty Building, a new 172,775 square foot outpatient clinic building. Funded primarily by Mayo Clinic benefactors, the building will increase Mayo's treatment capacity and enhance patient convenience.
