Learn about:
✅ Who is most at risk
✅ When to begin screening
✅ What test options are available (PSA, DRE)

The Junior Mountaineers Grossology Camp was a total blast!

This past Tuesday, our amazing team joined young campers at Western Colorado University to explore the world of the human body, emergency response, and healthcare. Campers tested the importance of helmets with a watermelon drop, showcased their speed in a broken bone race and learned how to stop a life threatening bleed.

A huge thank you to our dedicated team for inspiring the next generation of doctors, nurses, and paramedics — and for showing just how fun learning can be!
