The University of Colorado Hospital s women s services will open at the Anschutz Centers for Advanced Medicine Outpatient Pavilion on January 16. The newly completed ACAM creates a unique opportunity for a center where women can receive care in one place for all concerns specific to women s health. The various clinics, which specialize in treating women, will be located on the same floor of the new building to give patients more comprehensive and efficient service. The Women's Center, on the third floor of the outpatient pavilion, includes advanced reproductive medicine, the Breast Center, mammography, obstetrics and gynecology, Nurse Midwifery Faculty Practice, ultrasound, prenatal diagnosis and genetics, and urology and urodynamics. We now have a physical space that reflects not just the growth of our program but also the frontline, cutting-edge quality of care that our clinic provides to women with breast disease and breast cancer.
Women can now receive the latest medical treatments in a comfortable, visually attractive location.
Dr. Finlayson adds that having all of the women s services on one floor provides convenience for the patients and increases the communication between physicians, which improves the quality of care for women with various health concerns. The Anschutz Centers for Advanced Medicine officially opened on December 8 with a ribbon cutting attended by Gov. Bill Owens. The outpatient buildings are the beginning of the development of the new University of Colorado Health Sciences Center and the University of Colorado Hospital campus at Fitzsimons. By 2010, the Fitzsimons campus will consist of more than 3 million gross square feet of educational, research, clinical and support space. Located in Denver, Colo., the hospital is part of the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center campus, one of four campuses in the University of Colorado system.
