Scheduling an Appointment
We see all patients by appointment only.  Once a referral has been obtained by your primary care physician, please make an appointment by calling our office at 303-783-8844.

If you cannot keep your scheduled appointment, please contact our office at least 24 hours prior to your appointment to cancel or to reschedule.


First Appointment Checklist
Please come prepared for your first appointment and remember to bring the following:

  1. Insurance cards with Group Number, Member ID, and Payer ID.
  2. A Primary Care Referral letter if required by your insurance.
  3. All x-ray films performed which are pertinent.
  4. Reports and medical records which are pertinent.
  5. A written list of questions you have for our physician.
IMPORTANT:
Copays are due at the time of your appointment.  CBSI accepts cash, checks, and credit cards.

X-Rays and Radiographic Studies:
A very important aspect of your appointments with our Neurosurgeons is the process of reviewing all pertinent x-rays and radiographic film such as CAT scans and MRIs.

At the Colorado Brain and Spine Institute, we prefer that you bring physical hard copies of your x-rays, CAT scans, MRIs, and all related diagnostic film and studies.  Even though many diagnostic facilities today offer such items electronically on CDs, we still prefer physical copies of your film and studies since there are often technical problems with CDs that we are unable to overcome.  Without physical copies of your films, your appointment may need to be rescheduled.
