HonorHealth announced on April 6 the opening of a new cardiac catheterization lab at HonorHealth Scottsdale Thompson Peak Medical Center as part of an ongoing expansion to serve the north Scottsdale community.
The addition of this state-of-the-art facility is intended to increase access to advanced heart care for local residents. The hospital has been expanding over the past two decades, with further plans underway for a fourth patient care pavilion that will add 28 more inpatient beds and space for future growth.
The new cath lab is equipped with technology supporting a range of cardiovascular procedures, including diagnostic angiograms, coronary interventions such as angioplasty and stent placement, as well as more complex procedures like renal denervation and transcatheter aortic valve replacement workups. Haidar Yassin, M.D., interventional cardiologist and network director for structural heart disease at HonorHealth Heart Care, said, “This new cath lab allows us to bring advanced, minimally invasive heart care closer to home. 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.”
The hospital recently performed its first renal denervation procedure using this new facility. Jose Romo, administrator of HonorHealth Scottsdale Thompson Peak Medical Center said, “This investment reflects our continued commitment to growing with our community. As the area continues to expand, we’re focused on ensuring patients have access to the highest-quality care close to where they live.”
These developments are part of HonorHealth’s broader effort under current zoning approvals aimed at meeting expected population growth and evolving healthcare needs into future decades.
