Our clinic provides a variety services to help you get started. From diet counseling and physical therapy to mental health counselors, we provide resources to improve both your physical and emotional wellbeing.

Meet some of our providers and see how they can help you achieve your health goals:

November is National Diabetes Awareness Month, an important time to raise awareness and promote healthier lifestyles to prevent and manage diabetes. Over 37 million Americans have diabetes, and 1 in 5 of them don't know they have it. Diabetes is a group of metabolic disorders characterized by high blood sugar, and understanding it is essential for health. There are two main types: 1. Type 1 Diabetes: An autoimmune disease diagnosed in childhood, requiring lifelong insulin. 2. Type 2 Diabetes: Linked to diet and lifestyle, manageable with exercise, diet, and medication (Most Common Form). Prevention and Management Type 2 diabetes can often be prevented or delayed with these strategies : • Healthy Eating: Regulates blood sugar. • Exercise: Essential for managing weight and blood sugar. • Regular Check-ups: Vital for monitoring blood sugar and overall health. • Stress Management: Helps control blood sugar. • Quit Smoking: Reduces diabetes risk. By prioritizing your health through diet, exercise, and regular check-ups, you can manage diabetes and reduce risk. Remember, diabetes awareness is a year-round commitment.

Thornton Pediatrics

By Nathan Moore • October 23, 2025
We are excited to announce that beginning November 3, 2025, our Thornton location will begin seeing pediatric patients under the care of Frank Baldwin, PA-C. Frank Baldwin is a certified Physician Assistant specializing in general pediatrics. As the son of an Air Force serviceman, Frank grew up moving often but ultimately attended high school in New England. He earned his bachelor’s degree from Johns Hopkins University and his master’s in physician assistant studies from Salus University. With over 12 years of experience, Frank has developed a deep passion for working with children with developmental and behavioral diagnoses, including ADHD, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and oppositional defiant disorder (ODD). He is dedicated to integrating mental health into primary care and advancing nutrition and obesity prevention initiatives. Outside of medicine, Frank enjoys the outdoors, hiking with his partner, and spending time with his cat, Jojo. A lifelong basketball fan, he has also been a Denver Nuggets season ticket holder for the past decade. Frank’s philosophy of care is simple but powerful: “To collaborate with parents as partners in their children’s health, treating every patient with respect and providing quality, accessible medical care.” We are thrilled to welcome Frank to the MedNOW team and to expand our services to better meet the needs of families in our community. Pediatric appointments with Frank Baldwin, PA-C, will be available starting November 3, 2025. To schedule, please contact our Thornton office at (720)769-6828.
