Colorado is consistently ranked as one of the healthiest and most active states in the United States. With over 300 days of sunshine each year and easy access to skiing, hiking, biking, water sports, and even hang gliding, it's no wonder! Colorado has also experienced tremendous growth and economic prosperity.
Across the state, you'll find diverse neighborhoods, thriving arts and cultural attractions, and Denver is a hotspot for craft breweries and up-and-coming restaurants.
Whether you want to soak in a natural hot springs, check out the newest exhibit at a museum, or explore one of Colorado's 222 wildlife areas, there's something for everyone.
We asked some of our department's section chiefs why they chose CU Anschutz and here's what they had to say:
Ilana Kafer
Body Imaging
"CU Anschutz stands out as a place where collaboration, balance, and breadth of experience truly come together. We have a supportive environment where colleagues are invested in each other’s growth and success both in and out of work. There is a strong sense of community with an emphasis on work–life balance that allows trainees and professionals to thrive both inside and outside of work, with easy access to everything Colorado has to offer, from outdoor recreation to the vibrant music scene!
What especially draws me to CU Anschutz is the diversity of clinical exposure and the people I work with. As a body imager, we serve a wide range of patients, including complex and high-acuity cases referred from across the region and the country. This provides a unique opportunity to develop both depth and versatility in clinical training. Altogether, CU Anschutz offers not only excellent professional development, but also an environment where people genuinely enjoy the work they do and the life they build alongside it."
Jennifer Hankinson
Breast Imaging
"I chose to join the breast imaging department at CU Anschutz because of its collegial environment, commitment to high-level specialty care, and dedication to delivering cutting-edge treatment to our patients. At CU Anschutz, you can shape your career around your strengths, whether that means pursuing research and academic advancement, or leading a dynamic, community-focused clinical practice centered on a high-volume service. It’s an environment designed to support and promote both professional growth and meaningful patient impact."

This team-based culture is truly distinctive and continues to foster intellectual curiosity, innovation, and a commitment to lifelong learning.”
