Arapahoe, Adams, and Douglas counties
Surgical and endoscopic care for patients from Aurora
Aurora is the third largest city in Colorado and spans three counties, which makes it the least uniform community on this site. Any page that treated it as a single audience would be wrong, so this one describes the range instead.
One city, three counties, many populations
Aurora's boundary crosses Arapahoe, Adams, and Douglas counties, and the city is among the most demographically diverse in the state. Housing ranges from postwar neighborhoods near the western edge to subdivisions built in the last five years out east.
That range means the useful thing a page can offer is not a profile of the typical Aurora patient, because there is not one. It is a clear description of what is offered, what is not, and how to find out which applies to you.
What is offered here and what is not
Four areas: metabolic and bariatric surgery, acid reflux evaluation and treatment, endoscopy including endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty and reflux diagnostics, and general surgery covering gallbladder, appendix, and hernia of all kinds.
Stated just as plainly, this practice does not perform anorectal, hemorrhoid, or breast surgery. Saying so up front saves a wasted appointment, and it is more useful than implying full general surgical breadth that is not offered.
Referrals and language
Referrals from a primary care physician are common and welcome, and self referral is equally fine.
If English is not the language you want to have this conversation in, say so when scheduling. A consultation about mechanism, risk, and follow up is not a conversation to conduct through improvisation, and interpretation should be arranged in advance rather than on the spot.

Aurora borders Denver along its western edge, Centennial to the south, and reaches toward Parker at its southern extent.
Common questions
- Do you perform hemorrhoid or breast surgery?
- No. Those are not offered here. Metabolic, reflux, endoscopic, and general surgery limited to gallbladder, appendix, and hernia are the scope, and stating that clearly is more useful than a broad claim.
- Can interpretation be arranged for the visit?
- Ask when scheduling so it can be set up in advance. A conversation about risk and follow up needs to be understood fully, not approximated.
- I do not have a primary care physician. Can I still be seen?
- Yes, self referral is accepted. Establishing primary care is still recommended, since follow up after any procedure works better when somebody is managing the whole picture.
