A number of highly regarded medical facilities in Castle Rock is just what the doctor ordered for citizens of this 44,000-resident town.
For example, Sky Ridge Medical Center in Lone Tree has opened an Imaging Center at Castle Rock so that patients can schedule radiology procedures close to home. Also at the Castle Rock location on Perry Street is an Invision Sally Jobe Breast Center.
Services at the imaging center include ultrasound, x-rays, computed tomography scans and magnetic resonance imagings, while the Sally Jobe Breast Center provides high-tech and minimally invasive mammography procedures.
“As a result, Castle Rock residents no longer need to travel to the Denver metro area to receive these basic services,” says Damon Trahan, manager of the Sky Ridge Imaging Center at Castle Rock.
In addition to imaging services, the center has also become home to a team of physicians who specialize in a variety of medical fields. On staff are cardiologists, obstetrician/gynecologists, allergists, neurosurgeons and internal medicine physicians as well as nursing professionals.
“Many of our team members live in Castle Rock,” Trahan says. “This brings added comfort and helps reduce anxiety for our patients.”
Also in Castle Rock is Liberty Dialysis, a treatment facility for kidney patients. The medical building on Trail Boss Drive prides itself on a patient-centric approach that includes a comfortable, spa-like atmosphere along with WiFi and television access for its clients.
The town of Castle Rock is also home to MedExpress Urgent Care, which is open seven days a week from 8 a.m.-8 p.m. at the corner of Founders Parkway and Woodlands Boulevard. Their slogan is, “Great care, fast, ” and MedExpress physicians and nurses offer a full line of services that include x-rays, EKGs, stitches and IV fluids.
Meanwhile, Plum Creek Medical has been serving the community since 1987. Patients have the convenience of services and advanced equipment that include an on-site laboratory, x-ray machines, osteoporosis bone scan, cardiac room, cardiac treadmill and occupational medicine/preventative medicine.
“This was the first doctor’s office to offer urgent care as part of a family practice,” says Dr. Jack D. England, owner of Plum Creek Medical. “We can serve adults and children of all ages. We see patients on a continuing basis, treating a variety of medical conditions spanning many specialties and minor traumas in urgent care.”
England says Plum Creek is staffed with a board-certified emergency physician, board-certified family practice physicians, certified physician’s assistant, and family certified nurse practitioner.
“Plum Creek Medical is closer to home,” he says. “Our full range of services is what makes Plum Creek Medical the obvious choice for complete health care treatment in Castle Rock.”
