Parkview considers itself an integral part of Pueblo and southern Colorado. Our success can be directly attributed to an outstanding governing board. Parkview Board Members define themselves as Pueblo citizens first and Parkview Board Members second. Maintaining this independence allows the Board and Leadership the ability to prioritize key decisions and commit resources based on the needs of our community.
Beyond the millions in charity care provided every year, Parkview continues work to enhance our medical facilities. Construction is complete on the new Parkview Comprehensive Cancer Center. This facility is located on the main campus and will house Parkview Radiation Oncology, Rocky Mountain Cancer Centers and the Parkview Breast Health Center. It provides a truly complete approach to cancer treatment for our community and the surrounding counties in one centralized location. Construction is complete on our new state-of-the-art orthopedic hospital in Pueblo West. That facility offers the latest high-tech robotic surgical techniques focus on our expanding orthopedic and rehabilitation programs. Both opened in fall of 2022.
