At CU Medicine, we CU being cared for by some of the top doctors in the Denver metro and beyond. We’re proud to announce that 5280 Magazine named over 190 University of Colorado School of Medicine providers to their annual “Top Doctors” list in the August 2022 issue. The list, compiled by 5280 Magazine asking physicians in the Denver area “whom they would trust to treat themselves or a loved one,” named a total of 343 peer-nominated doctors.
Being the region’s largest and most comprehensive multi-specialty physician practice means CU Medicine can bring our unparalleled expertise at the forefront of medicine to our communities. We’re proud to have so many dedicated physicians and advanced practice providers be recognized for the tireless work they do with patients at our primary and specialty care clinics and at facilities operated by affiliate hospitals.
