Welcome to the Vasculitis Foundation Phoenix, Arizona Chapter

Welcome to our new web page for the Phoenix, Arizona Chapter!   This site is in it's infancy and will be evolving as a place to visit for information, support and up to date Chapter information and is being developed for patients, caregivers, family, friends, and medical professionals  who are seeking the most up to date information that is available today regarding vasculitis diseases.

The Phoenix Chapter was begun in 2006 and we have had ongoing meetings four - five times a year since then.  Between meeting times, we stay in touch with one another to lend support as well as information that may be helpful depending upon what one's needs are at any given time.  We are very pleased to meet at the Mayo Clinic Hospital, which is located at 56th Street and Mayo Boulevard, in Phoenix.  We always find it helpful to clarify that we meet at the "hospital and not the clinic, which is in Scottsdale."  Folks sometimes think the Scottsdale location is actually the hospital.
