RESPITE IN THE DESERT T Phoenix h 32nd d Street t VA Clinic promotes healing and care he newly h ly completed pl d Phoenix h 32nd Street VA Clinic is one of the largest VA outpatient clinics in the U.S., spanning roughly 275,000 square feet across 15 acres. Despite its size, the clinic doesn’t feel as if it was built to handle the bustle of half a million patient visits a year, multiple specialty and telehealth clin-ics, an education center, pathology, imaging — and counseling and mental health services. Instead, with its abundance of natural light, desert colors and greens-pace, the facility feels like a respite focused on the healing journey.
