Reviews of New West Physicians Ascent Family Medicine
Collin Burkhart
The doctors are great but the office never runs on time. I’ve had two appointments in the last week and they were half an hour behind each time. The second appointment was for a simple blood draw. 30 minutes late! Wild to me.
Steve Replogle
"New West Physicians Ascent Family Medicine" - that is an easily garbled mouthful, isn't it? Perhaps it indicates a merger of some sort? Did the New West Physicians join Ascent Family Medicine? Or was it the other way around?
Well, I recently began to use this practice after a long time with another doctor. That doctor’s office was right across the street, in fact! My insurance through work had changed, and so I had to make a change, too. I picked this practice simply due to geography (or perhaps proximity). It was close to Rose Hospital, which I have come to know well. I didn’t do any research on the practice or the doctor, but decided to simple give it a try and then move again if needed. Well, luckily, it was not needed. I have been very happy with my choice. The staff members are friendly and efficient; the doctors and nurse practitioners are thorough and conscientious. My own doctor is both optimistic and analytical. Easy to work with, and to trust. He has seen me for regular check-ups, and he also helped me get through a medical event that could have been fatal. I was quite grateful for his skill and his knowledge during that time – and I still am! The rest of the office was helpful, too. I’ve had to use the on-call system once, the response on that occasion was quick and effective.
Yes, the name of this practice is a bit awkward. I don't know whether the New West Family Physicians joined Ascent Medicine, or if the Ascent Physicians joined Family Medicine of New West. But it's a good practice. I give them my strongest recommendation.

I haven't needed to be seen in a few years and with COVID, I delayed my regular checkups. Returning to this office has been such a great experience. With so many health professionals burnt out, it was so amazing to see how friendly, kind and patient the front desk staff were. They clearly are valued and treated well by this practice and have been an absolute pleasure to work with. This office is BUSY and you will have to wait a bit when calling on the phone but it is so worth it. Thank you all for taking such good care of us, you are making a positive difference in our community.

omg DR. Rebecca Smith, PA-C !!!
I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Rebecca Smith this morning for my appointment concerning shoulder issues!
She was very thorough with my consultation and visit this morning.
It is definitely people like her and the great team at New West Physicians that keeps me healthy and happy! I very highly recommend this office!
Thank you Dr. Rebecca Smith for your outstanding care!
Most Sincerely,
Woody

I was trepidatious to change doctors. My favorite doctor of all time retired. However, everything went perfectly.. The doctor was fully aware of my health. Dr. Zonca immediately calmed me with his knowledge, and his pleasant and concerning attitudes. The proper tests were given and I received a follow up call with all the info I needed, along with a suggestion of what to use in lieu of a statin,, (I recently found a statin was causing my legs to cramp). I feel very confident in this change to a new doctor, and discovered it will be easy to contact them any time about anything. It was really reassuring, and I want to thank them, (all the employees who made everything enjoyable and simple), so much.

I have always had a great experience with the doctors and PAs at Ascent. However, the front desk staff is often disrespectful and rude. Over the years that I have been to Ascent, the front desk has 1. Scheduled me under the wrong patient, 2. Scheduled me for a follow up immunization outside of the wrong time frame, after I confirmed this time frame was correct prior, was told yes, and then was notified that it was actually wrong when I arrived the day of my appointment, and 3. Scheduled me with a PA that does not work on that specific day. They called to confirm that appointment a week prior and then two days prior to my appointment told me she actually does not work on those days and I need to reschedule.
I completely understanding that mistakes happen, as do last minute changes. This is not my frustration. My frustration is that when I express that a mistake happened, the front desk is often rude, does not show courtesy, or attempts to avoid the mistake from happening in the future. Today when I told them that I made my appointment over a month ago and could they please try to notify me sooner, if possible, if an error was made or a change in the schedule happens, the women at the front desk rudely said "Well, it was a last minute change so I don't know what to tell ya." Really a simple "I apologize, this was a last minute change, we will try our best to notify you sooner should this happen again," would suffice.
Although, the level of care once you get past the front desk is great, the office staff needs to practice common courtesy when interacting with patients.

I have been a patient at this practice for 20 years. However, after the older doctors retired and they moved to their new office space, I have noticed a marked decrease in customer service. I have had to make multiple calls, as well as my pharmacy in order to have my prescriptions refilled. These are maintenance medications I have been on for years and must take. I called this morning and asked to speak with the practice manager and have not yet received a call back and I probably won't. I am seriously considering switching to a different practice, even though I really like my new doctor.
Bonita Jones
New West Physicians, has a top of the line team of professionals that has always shown me great care in knowledgeable medical care.
They are very courteous and warm.
Leaving me with a warm and fuzzy feeling of doctors and staff that care about my medical needs and concerns.
Hate to see one of my favorites leave, but she will be a great asset to who ever is lucky enough to get her.
Bless you Emmily, and good fortune in your new job. You will be missed I'm sure by many.
Jeannette Madrigal
My visit was very thorough. The provider listened to me she talked to me. She was very upbeat and in a very good mood. Made me feel completely comfortable and didn't make me feel like she was busy and in a hurry to get in and get out she spent her time with me. I'm super excited to start my care with her. Emily Shupe-Tally PA-C
A. Mark Davenport
I really like our doctor and have been seeing him for many years, long before New West took over. However since New West things feel more business and less "caring" . Our last visit we came for wellness physicals. There was no one there who knew how to draw blood, yet that is one of the main parts of a wellness physical. They had inexperienced people stab my wives arm twice before deciding that we should come back for a blood draw. So now I need to take another few hours off work and return to finish what never should have happened in the first place. A simple phone call to reschedule us or tell us ahead of time that there is no one working that day to draw blood before you stab at my wife's arm several times before giving up, would have gone a long way. We will keep coming because we still have faith in our doctor but everything else there leaves a lot to be desired.
Colin Cooper
Dr. Talley was awesome. The first doctor I saw at this office was Dr. Zonca, then Dr. Chandra Houpt(?), and now Dr. Talley. Every single one of them is great.
But I'm writing this review because the women working the front desk did cause an issue with me. I rescheduled my Tuesday appointment to Wednesday due to doctor illness. So when I came in, the person working the desk said they tried to call me but the doctor wasn't in. I don't believe I received any call. They could get me at 2pm; my original appointment was 11am. I showed her a text confirming the 11am appointment, but she said the systems were not connected, which does seem a little ridiculous.
The main point I have trouble with, is the woman at the front desk was rude. She was acting like I was at fault for not getting the call. And I didn't even receive a cursory apology or sorry for the confusion. I've been in before where the ladies up front are talking very loudly about their weekends and romantic pursuits. Annoying? A little, but on the whole not a big deal. but coming in after already rescheduling, being treated dismissively, and not hearing even an apology or any thanks for rescheduling is gross. Honestly, if it were not for the awesome doctors, I'd be trying to find a new doctor to attend.
Someone needs to whip the front of the house into shape and teach some basic customer service.
Jason Pingenot
Dr. Zonca is a great doctor and really takes the time to get up to speed on a patient before entering the room. He is kind, practical, supportive and gives quality care. The only reason for not giving 5 stars is that I have had issues with some of the staff in the past, but some of those individuals are no longer present, and it seems to be getting better. Keep it up.
Jim Craig
Dr. Liesmaki is frickin' amazing. I've been seeing her for years, and if she ever leaves I'm going to follow her. She's knowledgeable, never seems rushed, is very pleasant to talk to and seems genuinely interested in me. I feel like a person and a patient rather than (at some other doctor's offices) an inconvenience and a payment. I also like how convenient it is that I can get my blood drawn right there in the office. I refer everyone I can to this office. I drive 45 minutes to come here, and I drive past probably 100 other doctors on my way to this office, but Dr. Liesmaki is worth it. I'd drive twice that far for this level of care!
Dawn Raczkowski
As a new patient to this practice, I was throughly impressed with everyone at this practice. Dr. Schupe Talley took her time to get to know me and my medical history. I felt very well taken care of, and I didn't feel rushed as I have with other physicians in past experiences at other practices. Even Brittany, who called me with lab results, was kind and willing to go above and beyond for me when I had a question. I would recommend this practice to anyone I know!
Doug Kolb
My primary care physician was unavailable so Dr. Zonka stepped up big time to take care of me. He was extremely helpful, caring, and a pleasure to speak to. All the people in the office have been fantastic every time I’ve dealt with them.So very fortunate to have found Ascent Family Medicine!
Jeff Hosking
They did a great job making me feel comfortable with the CoVid-19 situation. When I arrived the waiting room had been rearranged and laid out to accommodate social distancing. There were multiple hand sanitizer stations and many Kleenex boxes. I checked in and they immediately moved me to my own room. Everything was done in that room (exam, blood draw, etc.). After my appointment, I exited from another door and was finished. Very efficient and safe. Good Job New West!
Elizabeth McCormick
I enjoyed my visit with my doctor, Emily Shupe Talley. She is really friendly and professional. It never seems like she’s rushing you and is willing to answer all your questions. I would recommend her. My only issue is that I am rarely seen at my appointment time so this can be an inconvenience. I make my appts early in the morning because by the end of the day, they can get really behind.
rebecca schlegel
Emily was amazing! She was thorough, explained everything in detail and I never felt rushed. She got to the core of what my issue was (which is lower back pain) listened to my concerns and addressed them promptly. I would highly recommend her and am looking forward to making her my primary care!
Robert S DeRosa
I've been going to Ascent Family practice for almost 14 years now (roughly) and just cannot say enough about how great of a job they all do. Setting appointments, communication, everything, top notch. The doctors a great and the physicians assistants there are best in class, especially the one I work with mostly. 5 stars without a question.
Melinda Bond
McKenzie Kline P.A. is simply the best type of provider you could hope for. I've worked in the medical field for over 18 years, I've had experiences with every type of provider out there in my line of work and I don't hand out compliments freely unless I truly believe them.
She has a great memory,even when she hasn't seen me for 6 months, she actively listens to concerns, is proactive, and knowledgeable. She makes me feel valued and that I am her only patient at that moment. I've never felt rushed. She also returns phone calls promptly. (Usually within the same day.) I've never had a bad experience with her.
Andrew Higdon
I've received great care from NWP Ascent Family Medicine for 13 years now. Dr. Zonca, Phillip, Emily and others on the team have been great, and the adjustments they've made during the Covid-19 pandemic have been thoughtful and easy to navigate when going for office visits. Highly recommend!
Joe Herrud
Emily has always been a very professional and caring provider. Her breadth of knowledge on every topic that has come up during my decade as one of their patients impresses me. The other PAs who see me whenever Emily is not available also knock it out of the park. It sure is nice to go somewhere where I feel they truly care.
Kaitlin Conti
Emily and all the staff at New West have great customer service skills as well as being wonderfully friendly. I have been going to them for about four years now and I wont be leaving anytime soon. Anytime I have to leave a message they always get back to me in a timely manner. Great hours, great people, great locations, great doctors.
Susan Evans
Dr. Liesmaki is my Physician and she is absolutely wonderful in every way. She explains things thoroughly, asks meaningful questions and is very thorough. Plus, she has a warm smile and is so sweet! The assistants and techs were also very pleasant and thorough.
Nick Vallejo
I had a very pleasant experience here, there was an issue where they were not able to see me one day. I had other appointments, and had to leave as I could not see the doctor. They made an adjustment for me and the doctor stayed after hours to see me. I really cannot recommend Dr. McCallum and staff enough make an appointment and be well taken care of for the rest of your life.
Hal Riedemann
Staff members are extremely courteous and responsive to patients request. Dr. Zonca and Dr. "Nick" are among the most thorough and truly caring doctors I have ever known. And I have been around long enough to know that. I would highly recommend New West/Ascent Family Medicine to anyone seeking professional medical help or advice.
Cheyenne Murano-Thomas
I've had nothing but great experiences here at NWP Ascent! All the staff are so kind and the providers are great! I've never had doctor's listen to me the way Dr. Liesmaki and P.A. Chandra Houpt have. If I could give a 20 star rating I would!
Margarita Rodriguez-Corriere
I have worked with both Dr. Nick and Dr. Zonca; both have given me their undivided attention, provided next steps and information relevant to my case, and given follow-up care based on directives given. In this fast paced computerized service era, it's nice to receive genuine human interaction and care.
Sarah Hoffman
Dr. Husney is fantastic, she's been my doctor for years. She goes above and beyond EVERY SINGLE TIME. She LISTENS, she's caring, she's thorough, It's a shame the office staff continues to be flaky. They drive me absolutely nuts. They simply don't follow through on what they say they will do ("I'll call you in 48 hours" etc). I stick with Ascent Family Medicine because Dr Husney is simply the best, and worth the hassle of dealing with everyone else.
Joy Bohning
I really appreciate how personable everyone is at Ascent Family Medicine! Dr Liesmaki is the best doctor I’ve seen in a long time. She really takes the time to listen to me, remembers past conversations, and, most importantly, laughs at my stupid jokes!
Katherine Kintz
I'm not sure why you have this down under Katherine Kintz, but I am actually Jean Louise Kintz. I had a telemedicine appointment with Physician's Assistant Emily. She was very pleasant and helpful, however telemedicine will not be able to see the sore spot back in my mouth.
Anna Krioukova
Dr. Derick is top notch! He truly cares about every one of his patients. Takes ample amount of time at each and every appointment and genuinely wants to help. First time in many years I meet a Dr that cares. Not to mention his great sense of humor. Thank you!
Sheila Adam
Dr. Husney is great!! Finally found my very own primary care Dr. I also had the chance to met Dr. McKenzie. Which is fantastic as well. Evey assistant and front desk ppl where great and good mood. Every time I have to call to make appointment or resolve an issue, they are great and polite. Very pleased with this clinic. Thank you everybody!!! 👍
Jamy Schoss
My husband and I have both gone to this family practice and are happy with the way that the doctors educate us on our ailments. They don't just prescribe rx and send you on your way. They sit with you and discuss and investigate each occurence...like you want your doctors to do! I think the office staff is friendly and do their best to accommodate your scheduled visits. I am happy with McKenzie Klein and Emily Shoupe both (PA's) and Doctor Zonca. One area that my husband and I are taken by surprise is that when they do prescribe rx... it has been a very pricey prescription. I will remember next time I go in to ask for generics or something more affordable.
Collette Shaughnessy
Thanks for the opportunity to share my positive experience. Emily at Ascent Family Medicine takes time to Listen, explain conditions, and any questions about medication . She responds timely on the patient portal and is willing to work closely with her patients to find the medication that is individually appropriate.
Keli Schmid
I am extremely with New West. I have always been able to talk to a live person on the phone, and appointments have been easy to schedule, with little wait time. Dr. Liesmaki and her staff were all very attentive and helpful. I definitely recommend them.
Kristin Myers
Some doctors have been compassionate and truly seem to care, for them, I would give 5 stars. Recently I encountered a doctor and a PA that were subpar in the relational department. One acted like she could not get away from me fast enough and the other was condescending and rude. I split the difference and gave 3 stars.
Stefanie Shanahan
Have been going to McKenzie Kline for over a year and she has been amazing! You can tell she truly cares and doesn't just try to rush you out the door. I have been extremely happy with the care I have received and would recommend Mckenzie and Ascent Family Medicine to anyone looking for quality care.
James Fittz
I have been seeing Dr. Zonca and the staff at Ascent Family Medicine (formerly Peak Family Medicine) for eleven years for regular checkups and for specific issues as they have presented. My experience with Dr. Zonca and with the staff--from medical staff to reception staff to billing staff--has been entirely positive and productive of good results. Following my move to Denver from Greeley I asked two physicians (one a surgeon and another a gastroenterologist) in two different offices to recommend a primary care physician. Both, without hesitation, recommended Dr. Jonathan Zonca. I have not worked with Dr. Husney as yet, but my wife has and with equally positive results. We are both grateful for the excellent care we have experienced at Ascent Family Medicine.
Jeffrey Bennish
Dr. Zonca and his staff are top notch. I would like to see the scheduling system get put online and the possibly some additional enhancements to mobile patient portal in the future, but the clinical care and attention to detail are 10 out of 10.
Marilynn Ackermann
Prompt at finding an appointment with my Dr when need health related problem arose. Reasonable wait to get an annual Dr visit. Dr. Zonca addressed my immediate concerns well during appointment and had referrals to specialists promptly.
Judy Murdoch
Friendly, professional staff and doctors. Always seem to mangle my prescriptions refills. I either end up with too much of one prescription or no refills for months. Wish they would value accuracy and timeliness more.
Mary-Katherine Fleming
Erica Liesmaki is the best doctor I have ever worked with. She listens, she takes me seriously, it's CRAZY that I've never had that in a doctor before but it is rare. Never letting her go!
Bel Disastro
I was able to get a telemedicine visit within 2 business days. The provider was very kind, compassionate and thorough. It was nice to not have to leave home for an appt.
Laura Herrmann
Love the care I receive at Ascent! Staff is knowledgable and friendly and usually able to get me into the office quickly. Additionally, telehealth visits are being done so patients can receive care during quarantine!
Tim B
Dr Zonca is a great listener and always gives me ample time to discuss my concerns/symptoms. I would highly recommend him and Ascent Family Medicine to anyone looking for a new primary care physician.
David Klibaner
Physician Assistant Chandra Houpt is caring and attentive and skilled, in my two encounters with her. I do not trust Dr. Zonca to spend adequate time with a patient or to follow up with a patient. His care in my opinion is suspect. So, rate Ms. Houpt a 5 but Dr. Zonca a two.
Lourdes Sanchez
I like that they really put an effort to run your appointment on time.
I have been here a handful of times, I have always had a pleasant and timely appointments. Quality care.
gabriel anderson
I found a great Dr. at your office, she cares about all my needs and asks many questions to make sure I'm getting the care I need. Dr. Liesmaki is the best doctor I've been to and most caring.
Karl Bebendorf
I did a telehealth appointment recently with Emily Shupe Talley PA. What a convenient time saving medium! Emily addressed all my concerns effectively just as if I was in the office and with a smile 🙂 …
Kate Staudenmaier
Such a great experience from walking in the door and they are always willing to accommodate to get you in fast and answer simple questions on the phone. Dr. Emily Shupe was able to do everything for me right there on the spot and provide great service and is so friendly!
Amy
I have been a patient at this practice for about three years and I have never had a bad experience. The doctors and PAs are amazing listeners and truly care about their patients.
Amber W.
This was a "new patient" visit, staff was very friendly, the doctor took his time to get to know me and ask pertinent questions, I did not feel rushed and felt that I was listened to when describing past medical issues/ concerns. Happy I chose New West!
Thomas Stevens
I love this practice. My only gripe would be the phone system sucks, and they need to be open to take calls during regular business hours. You don't shut down your entire phone system for lunch.. it's called scheduling correctly to help clients..not the other way around.
Patti Kramish
I have now been to this practice twice and each time has been very positive. I have never had to wait more then 10-15 minutes. I have been very pleased with the doctors, they are thorough, take the time to listen and take care of your lab work or blood draws right there. So far I am very pleased.
Susy Halloran
A very positive experience with all of the staff, particularly with Dr. Zonca. Also great follow up the very next day.
Brandy Gwyn
Tamika was amazing helping me via phone during this weird time for everyone. Everything was a little more difficult given the current situation that is happening nationwide as well as worldwide. Communication was 100% on point and I can’t express how happy I am to have a team that actually cares. Thank you New West for everything! 🥰 …
Enrique Valdez
My appointment was on time, the front desk was very good and my doctor and her assistant, as always, excellent.
Nothing to change nothing to claim.
Thanks a lot and all the best.
Melissa Wahe
I love this office. I've always had wonderful experiences here with all the PA's and Dr. Zonca. They are excellent about timeliness and politeness. I really like working with them!
Michael McArthur
I have been a patient here for about a year now and have always had a very positive experience!
Dan Sheehan
Dr. Zonca has been very thorough in his follow up to my stroke in 2020. I am grateful for his attention to detail and patience in answering my many questions.
Sarah Williams
Always friendly and have great knowlegable doctors and physician assistants that take time and really get to know the problem.
Elaine Allshouse
New West Physicians is a fantastic medical practice. The doctors make it a point to make the patient their first priority. Thank you for your service.
Patty Block
As always, everyone there is "top of the line" and the best in caring for your patients. I'm grateful to be one of them! Thanks so much!
Gary Dawson
Moved here from UC Health. I was tired of seeing a different doctor each time I went in. AFM I get to see the same doc and the reception staff is always very prompt in getting me in to appointments. The courtesy valet makes it easy to get to and not have to worry about parking.
Alissa
Dr. Deric is amazing. I had a major issue a couple of months back and saw him today to follow-up. He spent about an hour with me going through what all my results meant. Highly thorough, knowledgeable and trustworthy.
Tim Janes
I just moved from the mts to Denver and had to find a new doctor. My first experience at New West Physicians was very good! The wait time was minimal. The doctor was attentive and made sure all questions were answered (I didn't feel rushed at all). And everyone there was upbeat and positive, making you feel very welcome. As well as easing any doctor office stress. I recommend their team to other people looking for a new doctor.
Keila Garcia
Dr. Nick was great. You can tell he is a passionate physician. He educated me and really took the time to address my needs as an individual.
Brook Heebner
I am new to Colorado and didn't have a doctor. I visited Dr. Erica Leasmacky (probably butchered her last name) and couldn't be happier. I came in scared, and she really did take the time to address all my concerns and run the proper tests. I am very happy and would recommend her to anyone. Especially with any heart or urgent issues.
Jenna Gabler
I called in to make an appointment to have a new PCP. They got me in for an appointment within the week. When I arrived, I barely sat down in the waiting room before I was seen. The PA had already reviewed my records and was very helpful. I would definitely recommend Ascent!
Stephanie Rosalky
Dr. Deric is wonderful. He cares about his patients and at each appointment he gives you the time and full attention that you desire. He is the best family doctor I've ever come across.
Andy Pietriyk
Friendly office staff. Easy to schedule appointments. Dr. Liesmaki is an kind, caring, compassionate, intelligent, knowledgeable physician.
Heather Finn
Had a short wait time in reception area. The PA made me feel very comfortable and explained everythig she was doing. I was taken care of quickly and efficiently but didn't feel rushed.
Love Dr. Liesmaki. She listened to all my concerns and explained all avenues for treatments. She was very through and at the same time very personable making me feel very comfortable . Will definitely request to see her on all my visits. All in all an A+ for sure.
Brian Kinnear
I have been a patient of Ascent/New West Physicians for some time. I find the professionals and staff pleasant, efficient, and caring. They listen and consult as well as diagnosis.
Jacqueline Kimble
The medical staff treated me well, the accounting/billing department is very unorganized and after 5 months, I am still working with them about an incorrect bill. Ugh!
Shanah Schaffer
Although the staff and Drs are for the most part, great, unfortunately this once wonderful family Dr Office has now become another corporate model slave.... no longer about the patient, just about the dollars....a lot of personal connection lost, sad to have to find another office for the family, hope there are some like this used to be left....
Terri Crandell
Everyone at New West is professional & kind. I did not feel rushed through my appointment & that is a huge issue with me.
Phyllis Wilhite
I am a patient of Dr Lismaski. She is very thorough and professional giving care. I would definitely recommend her.
KF Starr
I felt there could have been more attention during my annual visit. Quick to get out of the room without asking if I had any additional questions.
Alfaiyaz Ibrahim
Dr. Husney was extremely thorough and professional. My wife and I both saw her and really felt like she listened and cared about us. Great experience!
Heather Long
Never have to wait long! Dr. Zonca is a patient listener, interested, unhurried, and thorough. All wins in my book.
Shannon Baldwin
I can't speak highly enough of MacKenzie Kline. She's extremely patient, always has great ideas for treatment options, and conducts a thorough follow-up / review every time I see her.
Delana Reilly
I love this place. I have been brining my children here and also myself and husband go. My husband had a very rare and hard to diagnose issue and they were very helpful in not only making sure they knew what was going on but also consulting additional doctors to ensure the right treatment for him.
Pam Dupuis
Dr. Zonca is an incredibly knowledgeable and caring doctor. He has a good handle on all my issues. I feel very safe in his hands. The entire staff at Ascent is friendly and helpful. My whole family goes there.
Tom Chapman
Emily the PA is concerned, compassionate & she spends abundant time with her patients! I highly recommend her and the office in general.
Teresa Hicks
My first appointment with Dr. Zonca was great! He listened to me and addressed all my concerns. Happy to have found him!
Pamela Gold
I've never had a better experience than with Ascent Family Medicine. Emily Shupe Talley, PA is one of a kind. I've been with her for about 5 years and would never consider going elsewhere.
Shalelia Dillard
My physician, Dr. Leismaki is the sweetest doctor I’ve ever had. She truly cares for you and I’ve never felt like just “another patient”.
Amit Kooner
short wait times, great doctor visits, highly recommend!
GamingWithLandon “gaming with landon”
I love this practice! Everyone is super friendly and knowledgeable! You rarely have to wait, they never double book, seriously the best place!
Jenna Peart
Love getting my routine care here - staff and providers are all friendly, competent and efficient. My main complaint is that their BILLING department is awful -- I get random bills from care I got exactly 11 months ago that were already paid. I've gotten multiple erroneous bills in the mail, to the extent that I've considered switching my care for that reason alone.
Micky Williamson
Dr Zonca is one of the rare ones that will sit and listen to you...and that makes all the difference in the world. I have been his patient for 10 years and cannot imagine seeing someone else.
Leonard Rivera
This place is fantastic very helpful everybody's very professional and kind and they follow up with phone calls to let you know and results to any test you have taken there I know I'll definitely recommend them to to my family or anybody else looking for a new medical facility
Jason Fellows
I have bee a patient for 3 years, McKenzie, my physicians assistant asks good questions, listens and I have been very pleased. McKenzie and team are excellent.
Sarah M
I’ve been going to this practice for 4 years! Always very easy to get an appointment. The PA’s are always very knowledgeable and friendly. Chandra is a class act! I moved to Littleton last year but continue to make the drive.
Rachel Nunez
This experience was different by way of TeleHealth. It was very simplified. As usual Emily was great, kind & caring.
Bonnie Wells
I like Dr Liesmaki, but her office staff, not so much. Dr Liesmaki order a test, and I was told they would call me to schedule. After a couple of days, I emailed the office to ask if they ordered the test, and was told no, but they would fax the order over. Why should I have to remind the office staff, to do their job. Not happy, as this is the second time I have had to call office staff to get things done.
Tanya Fernandez
The office is efficient and easily gets you through your visit. Emily is fantastic!
Maggie Doyle
Dr. Deric Rachjaibun is the most caring, attentive doctor I've ever seen. Thank you, Doc.
Melissa Wahe
Chandra does a great and thorough job everytime I see her. Everyone in the office is very pleasant and timely.
Noral B
Love the Doctor but the wait was over half hour long.
Kathy E
Absolutely love Dr. Liesmaki! She’s thorough, knowledgeable, and truly takes the the time to listen to you and get to know you!
Dapper Dan Doll
I have always been skeptical of seeing a PA for a primary care. Quite some time ago I needed to establish with a doctor and this location was close to work. I have been Seeing Emily for years and I know she is awesome but today I got to sit in my physical and tell her all the things that were wrong and have her listen and reassure me with no judgement and with care. The most amazing person listened to my desire to remove my Mirena IUD and gave me 0 push back like I have only heard of other women having to deal with. She is respectful and personable and is exactly what a medical provider should be. I recommend her a million times over!

2020 update. My new doctor was great. Doctor Zonda had great health advice. He also came across as really caring when speaking about my health. Great doctor. Would definitely recommend! The nurses and office staff were awesome.
One nurse, I forget her name, left a great impression on me.. beautiful human being..

Doctor Deric Rachjiabun is the best. He takes his time and answers all your questions. You never feel rushed and you get lots of advice.

2019 Doctor Deric moved. New Doctor is Doctor Nick. He seems very knowledgeable. Arely and Ashley were phenomenally nice when it came to my fear of needles. Wow, very understanding. Thank you Arely and phlebotomist Ashley.

I've been going to Ascent and seeing Dr. Liesmaki as my PCP for two years. She has always been great and there has never been any problems. However, I was disappointed this last week when I called to make a sick visit appmt and was told that there were no openings for three days. Luckily, I was called back and they were able to fit me in before I went to an urgent care because there was a patient cancellation. I was unable to see my regular doctor (understandable for a sick, last minute visit). The provider I saw was fine but sent over an electronic script to the pharmacy for a narcotic, rather than providing me with a written copy (which means the pharmacy has to take additional steps to verify the script). This has resulted in a delay in getting my medications. Overall, a dissatisfying experience, considering the main reason I see a PCP as a healthy adult is so that I have someone to see for the rare occasions I get sick, I don't want to have to jump through hoops to try to get an appointment and then to get meds when I'm not feeling well.

I felt well treated. The office was taking great care to observe Covid-19 protocols.
Thank you!
Mary Wilson
The wait wasn't long, and everyone kind and courteous. The doctor pleasant and informative. Pleased with my experience here.

Dr. Zonca is brilliant! He is on top of his field! He understands medicine and has compassion for me as a human not a patient number.
June Achenbach
They were attentive to my concern;taking steps to immediately relieve the pain I was having in my left shoulder. Thank you Chandra, Dr. Deric Rachjaibun,and Dr. Zonca.

Greg Meehan
Dr. Zonca and his team are first-rate. They take the time to explain what is going on and give you the information to make sensible choices to improve your health.
Karen Allori

Andrea Lively
Always friendly and on time without ever feeling rushed. Fantastic group of people.
Jared Dennis
Dr. Rachjaibun is an incredible doctor. He truly takes his time when seeing you. Heck, he even took time out of his day to discuss medical issues with my children, whom he doesn’t see. I am lucky to have cane across Dr. Rachjaibun through a recommendation. I would recommend him for anyone who wants to hear the truth. He is the best family practice doctor I have pleasure of visiting.

I have gone to see Emily Shupe-Talley for at least the last 7 or 8 years, and I think she is fabulous. She takes all the time I need to listen to everything that's going on in my life, in case there's something that's relevant to what I've come in for. She also trusts that I know my body, and listens to my input, and rather than telling me to just take another pill gives great suggestions for lifestyle related fixes. Emily has referred me to great specialists when necessary, and run any problems up to the MDs in the practice when she wasn't sure. Everyone in the office has been professional and friendly. The one drawback I can think of is that it sometimes takes them a while to return phone calls from voicemails. Otherwise, FAB.
Anne Stinson
Super friendly and laid back staff! Overall a perfectly fine experience. My only beef is there is a lack of organization and follow through. For example, the PA said he would show me how to do a thorough breast exam before my pap smear but didn't. Then I felt weird asking for it, so I didn't. He also suggested a prescription for a mild sleep aid, I struggle with pretty consistent insomnia, then never ordered it or mentioned it at the end. Maybe he was new??
Mary Lisa Harper
I am very pleased with the attention to detail that this office and PAs have provided. Highly recommend.
Weldon Sikes
Great practice and wonderful care by nurses, MDs, and NP.
Christopher Howard
Dr. Derrick is perhaps the only doctor to renew my faith in physicians. I hate the health care industry as a whole and Dr. Derrick does all he can to ensure that one makes strides with their health.
Randolph Chrismon
Caring, knowledgeable physicians and PAs all of whom know who you are, seem to know everything relevant in your chart, and make the effort to contact you during the course of treatment. For example, my primary PA called me to see how I was doing with increased diabetes medications. Who does that anymore?
Charles Mingus IV
Excellent staff ... always well taken care of.
