In 2018, Denver Health and the Global Down Syndrome Foundation opened a pilot clinic with the goal to provide high quality care to Colorado adults with Down syndrome. With generous funding from the Anna and Jon Sie Foundation, the Global Adult Down Syndrome Clinic at Denver Health is staffed by experts in the field – Dr. Barry Martin, M.D. and Dr. Nicholas Breitnauer, MD– to address medical health concerns of adults with Down syndrome. In addition, Nina Cruchon, LCSW, works alongside the medical providers to address behavioral health concerns. Shaun Jackson, DPT, is providing physical therapy services to patients seen in the clinic.
The clinic is located at the Denver Health Federico F. Peña Southwest Family Health Center and Urgent Care. Currently we see patients every Monday afternoon.
The clinic currently only sees Colorado residents but we encourage anyone who is interested to receive care here to reach out. We aim to prove the need for an excellent quality medical care center specifically for adults with Down syndrome. Pending the success of the clinic, Denver Health could establish a permanent Down syndrome clinic for adults and expand services.
Please call us to make your appointment today and help us ensure a healthier future for our patients
