UCHealth Orthopedics – Pueblo West is the most convenient place for Pueblo and Southern Colorado patients to undergo outpatient and short-stay elective orthopedic surgeries.
The 58,000 square-foot building is located adjacent to the UCHealth Parkview Pueblo West Hospital building.
Orthopedic surgeons have a Mako Robot as part of their toolset, which enables patients to have a more predictable surgical experience. The Mako system guides surgeons’ cuts within the pre-defined area and helps prevent the surgeon from moving outside of the planned boundaries.
The new state-of-the-art hospital opened in September 2022, and features six high-tech operating suites with interactive projection screens that provide live high-definition video feeds from the operating room so surgery can be observed for training or educational purposes.
There is also an on-site lab and a new retail pharmacy. Expanded outpatient rehabilitation space has been provided for physical and occupational therapy.
Outside, the hospital has a separate drive-up patient pick-up area and a publicly accessible quarter-mile walking track with exercise stations, trees, benches and a shady pergola.
