Health care near over 55 communities near Phoenix Arizona
Often I’m asked about hospitals and how close they are to the different active adult communities. Most of my clients are of the younger retiree age but they still have enough forethought to make sure as they age they will have access to good health care.
Here’s a couple of questions I’ve been asked and is included in our 33 page guide to buying an over 55 home-
Q: Are there hospitals nearby? Are they any good?
A: As you can imagine with the advanced age of most of the residents, doctors and hospitals are close by. In fact Sun City West and Sun City both have the hospitals and doctors in the community. From just about any community you are no more than 20 minutes to a hospital and some are much closer.
The two nearby hospitals (Del Webb and Boswell) are both highly regarded hospitals and offer a high level of service. I can tell you from personal experience they are some of the best I’ve seen. You also have several other choices nearby and of course the Mayo Clinic is in Scottsdale.
Q: How far is the VA hospital? Are there any VA clinics nearby?
A: Our local VA hospital is located downtown in Phoenix but they do have several clinics in the west valley that you can go to. The clinics are located within 10-15 minutes of most communities.
Having easy access to health care is just one of the reasons people choose the west valley of Phoenix over other areas like Tucson or Casa Grande.
