Senior Care of Colorado provides high-quality, personalized medical care exclusively to older adults throughout the Denver Metro area and beyond.




Our clinicians see patients in almost 300 different skilled nursing and assisted living facilities, as well as select Denver Metro area hospitals.



“Our goal as clinicians is to maximize our patients’ quality of life and ability to function well. And respecting the patient’s individual wishes and desires is an important part of that process. Sometimes that even means reducing the number of medications they’re taking. Or gaining a thorough understanding of the psycho-social issues that affect their lives.”

     ~ Donald J. Murphy, MD



             

"Finally, I've found a doctor who listens to me and involves me in making good, informed choices about my medical care."





Our providers regularly write articles and give talks on topics of interest to older adults. Click here to read more.




Our dedicated doctors, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, licensed clinical social workers and other clinicians are specially-trained in geriatrics and work in close cooperation with one another. See our physician bios here. Or visit our other providers' profiles here.




We care for our patients in the office, in their homes, at nursing and assisted living facilities. We work with specialists and hospitalists who provide expert day-to-day hospital care. And in certain Denver Metro area hospitals, those physicians are part of our own IPC family.



Don Murphy, MD, and Mike Wasserman, MD, had an ambitious vision: a dream of creating a successful Medicare-only private practice to serve exclusively seniors in the Denver area. So the two board-certified geriatricians (physicians who specialize in the care of older adults) took a leap of faith in 2001 and founded Senior Care of Colorado. The practice became a part of IPC The Hospitalist Company in December 2010.

"Working in nursing homes affords me the privilege of showing compassion to people who don't usually get it-and who really need it. It feels good to make that kind of contribution."

How to Choose a Physician

One of the most important decisions that you will ever make is choosing a primary care physician. You must find a doctor that you are comfortable with and with whom you feel that you can communicate. A doctor can not be of much help if they are unable to communicate with their patient. If you are looking for a new doctor, call the doctor's office and ask if you can come in and meet the doctor. If you are able to do this, be prepared with the questions that are important to you.
