Surgery Center of Fort Collins Ceases Operations

Surgery Center of Fort Collins Ceases Operations

The Surgery Center of Fort Collins has closed its doors due to adverse business conditions. Outstanding bills are due, and payments are still being accepted by calling 970-494-4800.

Medical Records held by the Surgery Center of Fort Collins are available. The Surgery Center retained Cariend, a medical records custodian, to manage the records for the next 25 years. Cariend is not a medical provider and does not handle billing, medications, or referrals for the closed practice.
