Tucson Medical Center's new 4-story Orthopaedic and Surgical Tower, opening in Spring 2013, will provide new orthopaedic and general surgical suites, as well as private orthopaedic patient rooms. The facility will support a partnership between TMC and Tucson Orthopaedic Institute (TOI) to create a world-class orthopaedic specialty center known as the TMC Orthopaedic Center, to be managed cooperatively by TMC and TOI.

Upon opening, TOI will move its offices in the first floor, so patients will have convenient access to care, all under one roof. The facility will include modernizations dedicated to orthopaedic concerns, helping skilled surgeons and specialists ensure better outcomes, higher patient satisfaction and reduced complications.

In addition to 10 state-of-the-art orthopaedic operating rooms on the third floor, the center will also provide forty private patient rooms, designed for post-surgical care for the orthopaedic patients. Every one of our private patient rooms will have a view of the city or the mountains. Spirits can't help but lift at the sight of Tucson's bright, golden skies and therapeutic landscapes. Warm finishes create a soothing backdrop for patients, while small luxuries, from flat-screen televisions to built-in night lights, ensure optimal comfort and convenience. Acute therapies will also be provided on the same floor.

When the new facility opens, it will be the only center dedicated to orthopaedics in Southern Arizona, ensuring world-class orthopaedic care to Tucson and the surrounding community.
