Who We Are

More than Arizona’s largest orthopedic practice, we’re a community of dedicated healthcare professionals united by a shared mission to transform lives through exceptional orthopedic & spine care.

Built on a Foundation of Excellence

The CORE Institute was founded over 20 years ago by a group of visionary orthopedic surgeons who recognized the need for comprehensive, specialized musculoskeletal care in Arizona. What began as a small practice has grown into the region’s premier orthopedic institute.

Today, we’re proud to be Arizona’s largest orthopedic practice, with 60+ board-certified & fellowship-trained physicians, 600+ healthcare professionals, and 20+ locations across the Valley. But our size hasn’t changed our commitment, we still treat every patient as a valued individual deserving of personalized, compassionate care.

Our growth reflects our unwavering dedication to clinical excellence, innovative treatments, and exceptional patient outcomes. We’ve built our reputation one successful surgery, one relieved patient, and one restored life at a time.
