We had a fantastic time today at BeaconFest in Grand Junction!

Dr. Borchard and Dr. Mares loved connecting with so many of you, sharing knowledge, and being part of such a great community event.

We’re proud to be your trusted surgeons and a place you can count on for exceptional orthopedic care. Thank you to everyone who stopped by. We look forward to continuing to care for you!

❗️Scam Alert ❗️

We are aware of malicious individuals contacting community members stating they are calling from Pioneers Medical Center or our clinics. Please be assured that there has not been a breach or leak of your information, and that bad actors may be using publicly available information, such as phone registries or Google listings, to target their phone calls. Scam callers may also “spoof” their number to appear as a legitimate U.S phone number or as one of our numbers.

Please be aware that any phone calls made from PMC will come from one of our main numbers: 970-878-4014 or 970-878-5047. You may also receive text messages, if you have opted into text reminders or chat, from various numbers — but all phone calls will come from our main lines.

You may also receive phone calls from our billing partner, AR Services from a 970-242-2740 or 888-828-0007.

Do not share personal information over the phone if you are not confident that it is a real representative from our facility or AR Services. If you are not sure, we ask that you contact us at 970-878-5047 or 970-878-4014 to confirm.

If you have received a scam call, please notify us directly by emailing blozano@pioneershospital.org or messaging us directly on Facebook. We also encourage you to leverage the scam reporting feature on your smartphone. Your vigilance is greatly appreciated.

We will share more information as we continue our investigation. If you have any questions, please email or message us directly.

🩺 We are grateful for our wonderful group of CRNAs that keep the operating suites running and our patients safe during and after surgery. ❤️‍🩹

🩺✨ It’s National CRNA Week (January 18–24)! ✨🩺

Did you know nurse anesthetists have been delivering safe anesthesia care for more than 150 years—dating back to the Civil War? From operating rooms to rural hospitals and military settings, CRNAs are advanced practice nurses who keep patients safe when it matters most.

At the Colorado Center for Nursing Excellence, we celebrate CRNAs for their expertise, leadership, and commitment to expanding access to high-quality care across Colorado and beyond. Thank you for being calm under pressure and champions of patient safety—then and now!

🎉 Let’s hear it for CRNAs! 🎉
