Chandler, Arizona, has a stable suburban population with an economy anchored by many large financial, and high tech companies. Located southeast of Phoenix, Chandler is a skillfully developed community of friendly, diverse neighborhoods with expansive parks, great schools, convenient shopping, and excellent career opportunities.

For more than 50 years, Dignity Health’s Chandler Regional Medical Center has focused on quality patient care and service to the community.
