Local. Independent. Physician-Owned Since 1949.

Seven Decades of Care

Boulder Medical Center stands today as a testament to nearly eight decades of unwavering dedication to our patients, team excellence, and community vitality. Since our inception on February 21, 1949, we’ve remained steadfast in our commitment to providing comprehensive care tailored to the healthcare needs of Boulder County and its surrounding areas. Learn how our local, independent, and physician-owned practice makes us different than other primary care and specialty practices.

In the wake of World War II, our story began with ten visionary physicians in Boulder coming together to establish a multi-specialty medical group. This collaboration laid the groundwork for Boulder Medical Center, pioneering comprehensive, coordinated healthcare with primary and specialty providers—an innovation that continues to define our mission.

We’ve evolved over the past nearly eight decades while upholding our roots in local ownership. Our dedication to personalized, high-quality care has been a constant, continually adapting to meet our community’s emerging needs. This unique ownership model enables us to remain deeply committed to our patients and swiftly adapt to the evolving healthcare landscape.

From our inaugural clinic at 2750 Broadway in Boulder, we’ve grown to include over 80 physicians and providers across five locations in Boulder County.

“Our unwavering commitment to remaining local, independent, and physician-owned has been instrumental in our ability to prioritize delivery of individualized and high-quality, compassionate patient care,” said Donna Basden, CEO of Boulder Medical Center. We also remain nimble in advancing technology while promoting an autonomous practice environment that attracts and retains top talent.”
