As the longest-standing certified American Burn Association burn center in Colorado, our goal is to provide comprehensive, competent, and compassionate care of the burned patient.

Welcome to the University of Colorado Burn Center. The UCHealth Burn and Frostbite Center at Anschutz is Colorado’s premier burn center since 1976. We are one of 54 American Burn Association (ABA) verified locations in the United States and the first and longest-standing burn center in the Rocky Mountain region. Our burn center model provides inpatient and outpatient services in one location. A team of medical specialists work together to treat unique burn and frostbite conditions. These teams are made up of surgeons, registered nurses, burn technicians, psychiatrists, and pharmacists. Additional staff members include social workers, caseworkers, nutritionists, physical therapists, and occupational therapists. These professionals blend their expertise to maximize recovery and quality of life.
