Emergency and urgent care locations

If you're concerned that you or your child may have been exposed to COVID-19, please do NOT visit an emergency or urgent care location. Instead, call your doctor or our free ParentSmart Healthline at 720-777-0123 for guidance.

In life-threatening emergencies, find the emergency room location nearest you. For non-life-threatening medical needs when your pediatrician is unavailable, visit one of our urgent care locations.

My care philosophy

I was drawn to pediatrics because it allows me to develop rewarding relationships with my patients and families. I strive to practice evidence-based medicine while treating patients and their families as integral members of the health care team.
