Why Tucson

Tucson delivers 350 days of sunshine annually along with a quality of life that's genuinely hard to match — low cost of living, an acclaimed restaurant scene, and a rich Southwestern culture that gives the city a distinct personality.

Outdoor enthusiasts will find world-class hiking, biking, and desert exploration practically at their doorstep, while the University of Arizona anchors a vibrant academic and cultural community.

The city's diverse population, welcoming neighborhoods, and strong school options make it an equally appealing place to raise a family. For physicians who want to do meaningful work without sacrificing lifestyle, Tucson consistently delivers on both counts.

Established in 1961, St. Josephs Hospital in Tucson is home to the Carondelet Neurological Institute and the Carondelet Joint Replacement Center.
