Patient Experience Week is an annual event that brings together healthcare providers and staff to celebrate and recognize the importance of patient-centered care. Hear what the patient experience means to our CU Medicine providers, staff and patients.
Karen Ashbeck, DO – CU Medicine Obstetrics & Gynecology – Parker
Dr. Karen Ashbeck was such a good listener and so knowledgeable about my situation. She made me feel less stressed, listened and addressed all of my concerns. I was a new patient for her, but she did not rush through my appointment as she learned why I was seeking her care and expertise. She was very kind and professional, and by the end of the appointment I felt like I had known her for years. I highly recommend Dr. Ashbeck to anyone requiring an OB-GYN.

Dr. Valasareddy treats you with respect and concern about your health. She treats you like you are one of her own family members.

R. Andrew Gaines, MD – CU Medicine Otolaryngology Head & Neck Surgery – Highlands Ranch Specialty Care Center
Amazing bedside manner. Dr Gaines is truly interested in listening to his patients and genuinely cares about them. I am so very happy that I chose him. He walked me through my entire cancer care, from diagnosis to after care and now two years cancer free. He took all the time I needed to answer all of my questions concerns. This is a rare occurrence in the medical field today. I would recommend him to any family or friends that needed his specialized services.
Paul Maroni, MD – CU Medicine Urologic Oncology – Highlands Ranch Specialty Care Center
Dr. Maroni and his nursing staff made me feel very comfortable by explaining each step of the procedure and what to expect. This was very effective at reducing anxiety. Thanks to Dr. Maroni's skill, the procedure was virtually pain free. Dr. Maroni also took time to brief me on the location of the prostrate biopsy samples he took. The nurse explained post-op care thoroughly.
