While Mother Nature has now twice delayed our planned public grand opening of a new Community Health Center in Avon, Colorado, I’m writing to celebrate the opening of the MFHC Avon site, which began serving patients last month on January 16, 2023.
Mountain Family’s Avon Integrated Health Center provides affordable primary medical, dental, behavioral, and pharmacy services to the Eagle River Valley community. In the first six weeks of operation, the MFHC Avon team has cared for more than 650 patients. We aim to serve up to 4,000 patients in the coming year ahead. To make an appointment at Mountain Family, please call 970-945-2840.
We’re thankful to many local, state, and national community partners for helping to support the launch of a new Community Health Center in Avon. U.S. Senator John Hickenlooper, Colorado State Speaker of the House Rep. Julie McCluskie, and Colorado State Senator Dylan Roberts congratulated the MFHC team with messages you can view below and on our YouTube channel.
In addition to strong legislative support, we’re deeply grateful to our community partners from Vail Health, Eagle County, the Colorado Health Foundation, Rocky Mountain Health Plans, the U.S. Bureau of Primary Health Care, Town of Avon, Office Outfitters and Planners, Rob Pew and Susan Taylor, Steelcase Furniture, and countless others for your support of Mountain Family Health Centers.
We’ll gather for a community celebration later this coming Summer when the snow has melted into the rivers and our beautiful mountain communities are reliably safe for travel.
Colorado State Speaker of the House and Representative Julie McCluskie, State Senator Dylan Roberts, and US Senator John Hickenlooper send us congratulations for this momentous occasion.
In addition to the support of our state and national representatives, we wish to thank the following generous donors who have made possible the opening of the Mountain Family Avon Integrated Health Center:
- Eagle County
