Thirty-nine providers who recently joined Phoenix Children’s Medical Group from a private practice will also join the new division. 

Phoenix Children’s also recently added a division of infectious diseases and a division of nephrology ahead of the opening of two new hospital campuses over the next two years. 

Both Dr. Jagannathan and Dr. Sawardekar are joining Phoenix Children’s from Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago. 

“I look forward to being part of Phoenix Children’s commitment to clinical best practices and continuous quality improvement efforts. It’s an exciting time to join this health system, as the pediatric population in Arizona is booming and we have additional sites of service opening over the next few years,” Dr. Jagannathan said in a Dec. 20 press release. 

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
