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 work closely with a multidisciplinary team to provide personal treatment plans for every patient, with plans including surgical and non-surgical options. At Children's Hospital Colorado, we have a dedicated Hand Center and Brachial Plexus Clinic, which means your child will receive age-appropriate care in a kid-friendly environment. With special training in pediatric hand surgery, my team and I are particularly sensitive to the needs of the growing child with hand differences and injuries.
