For me there are few things more satisfying than providing access to affordable healthcare for people who otherwise would have to forgo treatment.  It has been an honor to work at Mountain Park as a physician, Medical Director and now as the CEO.  I am proud of the work Mountain Park Health Center does on behalf of the community; proud we provide a viable option for people who recognize there is a better way to get health care than inside an emergency room.

Mountain Park was created nearly 30 years ago with the mission to keep healthcare affordable and accessible.  I can think of no other time when the issue of affordability and healthcare have meant so much to so many.  With today's economic downturn on the front page of every paper, with jobs being cut back, inflation rising and gas prices at all time highs; never has it been so important to provide affordable healthcare.

I recognize Mountain Park can't be effective alone.  We have created some wonderful partnerships along the way.  If we focus on doing good for the community we will continue to make a difference, one patient at a time.

Sincerely,

John Swagert, MD

Chief Executive Officer
