Local woman comes home to join Colorado Health Medical Group

Colorado Health Medical Group recently welcomed general and trauma surgeon Dr. Kaitlin Heisel to Surgical Specialists of the Rockies.

"I grew up on Stover Street and still have a lot of family living in the area," Heisel said. "It feels really good to be back in the area serving the community that I love so much."

Surgical Specialists of the Rockies, a clinic of Colorado Health Medical Group, is a general and trauma surgery group with locations in Fort Collins, Loveland and Greeley. The clinic employs nine experienced surgeons who provide trauma surgery coverage to Poudre Valley Hospital in Fort Collins and Medical Center of the Rockies in Loveland.

In addition to her general surgical skills, Dr. Heisel has special interests in advanced laparoscopic procedures and cutting-edge surgical procedures for the treatment of hernias, gastroesophageal reflux disease and gallbladder conditions.
