This West Valley Post tracker follows major hospital, emergency-care and healthcare-campus development across Surprise, Peoria, Glendale, Goodyear, Buckeye and nearby growth corridors.

Current status

  • Abrazo West Campus, Goodyear: DNV Comprehensive Stroke Center certified. Abrazo announced Sept. 2 that the hospital at 13677 W. McDowell Road received DNV’s highest stroke-center designation, with 24-hour stroke specialists, advanced imaging and interventional treatment for complex cases. The health system says it is the only DNV-certified Comprehensive Stroke Center in Arizona west of Interstate 17. Recent West Valley additions also include a 46,000-square-foot medical building beside the campus and a 60,000-square-foot medical office building on Verrado Way in Buckeye. Read West Valley Post’s coverage.
  • Banner Health Emergency Verrado, Buckeye: Opening expected November 2026. Banner Health recruitment material describes a new 14,500-square-foot freestanding emergency department at 20751 W. Market St. with 14 exam spaces, a trauma/treatment room and X-ray, CT and ultrasound capability.
  • HonorHealth Deer Valley Medical Center: Major expansion completed in 2026. HonorHealth completed a roughly $170 million renovation and expansion that increased the hospital from 204 to 238 beds and added a four-story, 166,000-square-foot patient-care pavilion.
  • HonorHealth Complete Care – Surprise: Open. HonorHealth operates a combined emergency-room and urgent-care facility at 16575 W. Waddell Road in Surprise.
  • Banner Health Center at Goodyear Civic Square: Open. Banner operates a 65,000-square-foot multispecialty center at 1800 N. Civic Square with primary care, endocrinology, orthopedics and advanced imaging.
  • HonorHealth Medical Campus at Peoria: Open. HonorHealth operates an approximately 100,000-square-foot multispecialty campus at 15000 N. 83rd Ave., with cancer care, breast surgery, primary care, physical therapy, gastroenterology and other services.
  • HonorHealth medical district at FIVE NORTH at Vistancia: Planned / preconstruction. Peoria announced in August 2025 that HonorHealth signed a letter of intent for an eight-acre medical district within FIVE NORTH in north Peoria, expected to include primary, urgent, concierge and other ambulatory care. West Valley Post has not verified a construction start or opening date, so the project remains listed as planned.
  • Asante / north Surprise hospital site: Planned / watchlist. Earlier development plans tied an HonorHealth hospital campus to the Asante area, while City of Surprise economic-development materials continue to identify hospital and medical-office uses as part of north Surprise growth. West Valley Post has not verified a 2026 vertical-construction start for a full hospital at that site, so it remains listed here as planned rather than under construction.

Why healthcare development matters

Population growth in the West Valley is pushing healthcare systems to expand emergency, inpatient and outpatient capacity farther from the metro core. Hospital development also tends to bring medical-office buildings, specialty clinics, pharmacies, restaurants and other supporting development, making healthcare campuses important anchors in emerging growth areas.

What West Valley Post is watching

  • The November 2026 opening schedule for Banner Health Emergency Verrado.
  • Any verified construction, permitting or timeline change for the planned Asante-area hospital campus.
  • Entitlements, construction timing and final service mix for HonorHealth’s planned FIVE NORTH medical district.
  • New hospital or medical-campus announcements in Surprise, Buckeye, Goodyear, Peoria and Glendale.
  • Large emergency-department, bed-capacity and specialty-care expansions, including how regional directories and emergency-routing systems reflect Abrazo West’s new comprehensive stroke certification.
  • Medical-office and outpatient clusters associated with major residential growth.
