Since opening more than 20 years ago, HonorHealth Scottsdale Thompson Peak Medical Center has incrementally expanded to meet the needs of a growing community by increasing bed capacity, advancing specialty services, and raising the level of care available close to home for thousands of residents. That responsible development continues today, with plans underway for a fourth patient care pavilion that adds 28 more inpatient beds, with shelled capacity for an additional 28 beds in the future.
The new cardiac catheterization lab at HonorHealth Scottsdale Thompson Peak Medical Center is one of the latest investments supporting that vision, bringing even more state-of-the-art heart care into north Scottsdale.
The lab is equipped with technology to support a range of cardiovascular procedures, including diagnostic angiograms and coronary interventions such as angioplasty and stent placement. It can also facilitate more complex procedures such as renal denervation, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) workups and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
“This new cath lab allows us to bring advanced, minimally invasive heart care closer to home,” said Haidar Yassin, M.D., interventional cardiologist and network director for structural heart disease, HonorHealth Heart Care. “With the latest technology and a collaborative care team, we can support more precise diagnosis, treatment and recovery. This investment continues to place HonorHealth at the forefront of cardiac care in Scottsdale and the greater Phoenix area, while strengthening our position as a leader in minimally invasive coronary and valvular heart disease across Arizona.”
HonorHealth Scottsdale Thompson Peak Medical Center recently performed its first renal denervation procedure, marking a key milestone for the campus and expanding access to this treatment for patients in north Scottsdale and surrounding communities.
“This investment reflects our continued commitment to growing with our community,” said Jose Romo, administrator of HonorHealth Scottsdale Thompson Peak Medical Center. “As the area continues to expand, we’re focused on ensuring patients have access to the highest-quality care close to where they live.”
The new cardiac catheterization lab and patient care pavilion are part of HonorHealth’s broader effort to expand services and capacity under currently approved zoning to meet the expected population growth and evolving healthcare needs for decades to come.
