He will also lead future hospital expansion, strengthen external partnerships and ensure consistent, high-quality care across all community hospital locations.

Earlier in his career, Argyle held pediatric leadership roles at Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake City, where he oversaw the Congenital Heart Center. In partnership with clinical leaders, he helped grow the program's scale and clinical impact while advancing care quality.

"Phoenix Children's is building a more connected system of care across Arizona, and this role is central to that effort," said Argyle. "I look forward to working with leaders across the organization to strengthen operations, support new hospital development and ensure consistency in the care experience as the system continues to grow."
