Building and Owning Arizona Healthcare Facilities

For Physicians Who Want to Build and Own Their Own Medical Facilities

You have achieved success in the practice of medicine. Now you are considering the next logical step: expanding your practice by developing and owning your own medical facility. This venture represents a significant investment and a complex business undertaking. The difference between a profitable, thriving facility and a costly failure often lies in the quality of the legal counsel you receive from the very beginning.

The attorneys at Jaburg Wilk understand the business of medicine. We have a long and proven record of helping physicians and medical groups successfully navigate the development process, from the initial concept to the day the doors open.
