The comprehensive healthcare at Axis Health System locations includes primary care, behavioral health care and dental care. First, the Corporate Office is in Durango. In addition, there are four other clinics in Durango.
In the event of a medical emergency, dial 9-1-1 or go to the nearest emergency department or hospital. If you have an after-hours medical concern (that is not a medical emergency), call 970.247.5245 to talk with a Registered Nurse (RN). La Plata Integrated Healthcare is one of Axis Health System's six federally designated Community Health Center (CHC) sites.
You have a choice of many types of counseling. For example, Axis mental health care includes individual and group counseling. First, this provides the opportunity to look at how you would like to change your life. Second, you can examine what holds you back. Finally, you can get help to get to where you'd like to be.
Everybody hurts sometimes. Life can knock you off balance and make you feel overwhelmed. We are here to help you through a crisis. A variety of kind, experienced staff members at Crossroads at Grandview offer different types of care to help you feel stable. Our Acute Treatment Unit (ATU) provides short-term crisis stabilization.

Rudest employees. Today I had an appointment. Arrived 15 minutes early. Was taken to the back with the staff to fill out information. Told to sit in the waiting room....then they can’t see me till Friday. I left and went to er. I had an abnormal ekg! Drs and staff were more worried about lunch. The er staff was amazing and kind. By the way it was my 4th time making this appointment because they would change it. Holly is really rude. Dr shaina. Unbelievable! Sad!

I was diagnosed with ADD as a child and now I have a severe case of ADHD as an adult. I went to see Susan Russo and she was Not very pleasant. She yelled at me a few times and after I had bad side effects of non-stimulant ADHD medications Susan refused to give me anything else. I have been on Ritalin and Adderall most of my life and now I'm terribly suffering because she refuses to get me the help I need. Susan Russo is not qualified to take care of a cat much less a human. There is NO Way I can live my life like this! Thanks for NOTHING! Seeking Help Elsewhere! UPDATE: Review may change, Susan

Let me tell a story.
I had decided I needed to get my mental health in order. I went to Axis in hopes to get proper treatment. I'm going to skip over how hard it was to even get seen by anyone (and this took up about 5 weeks of my time trying to get in). First thing I was told is they required me to go to a certain number of group sessions in order to be seen for meds. I struggled with making the required number of sessions because they were available at a time I could go (I was a full time student at the Fort and worked full time). I skipped classes to come to the sessions. After I had met the

It is so sad to see that so many people I have such bad experiences here. I have been attending therapy (individual and group) here for the last 6 mo and my experience has been wonderful for the most part. I have had some trouble with the billing department but that’s about it. Everyone from the front desk to the therapists have been so attentive to making sure my needs are met.
They are clearly understaffed which can make for late appts, long wait times, unavailability, but I don’t really mind because I feel like the team really cares about me and my recovery.

I am very grateful for this resource in our community. Counseling and group therapy have helped me a lot with my depression. I am bringing a friend in, who needs help with mental health and other things.
The staff, including receptionists, have always been friendly and professional. They do seem to have a high turnover of counselors.

I had a psychiatrist tell me that they don't want to put me on medication that i was on 5 years straight because "depressed people kind of hang their shoulders like this *slimps shoulders* and kind of don't want to do anything and youre just not like that." Then my medication gets all out of wack because I'm on it one month and off it 4 and on 1 month and off 4 months because between Durango's incompetence with Obamacare and the clinic's lack of communication with their patients. Today I try to get anyone to help me with the prescription refill and the guy literally is talking down to me with this

Extremely rude employees. No sense of being prompt- I waited three hours at Mercy hospital for one of them to show up, only to spend 30 minutes talking with them before I was referred somewhere else. No sense of sympathy or care whatsoever. Overall.... you just get bad vibes, poor customer service, and an even worse mental health service. It amazes me y'all are still in business.

Just awful! My husband, daughter and I were having issues so we scheduled to meet with a counselor there. When we arrived they took us into a medical room. Then two nurses arrived and had me sit in a chair and they started taking my blood pressure and weight. At that point, I said we are here for counseling. They then said that I needed a medical exam first so that is what they were doing. I said "So you're doing my medical exam with my husband and daughter in the room?!" They said "Yes, they have already had their exams. They can meet with the counselor while you have your exam." I then said,

Last week my family was in crisis. My 18 yr old son was feeling suicidal and was dealing with paranoia and delusions along with depression brought on by his mental illness. We turned to Crossroads and Axis Health, and they immediately took us under their wing. From Liza at the front desk showing us compassion and support, coupled with Steve and Christopher assessing my sons state of mind and quickly coming up with a sound plan, you truly got us through this horrible moment. The Axis team took care of everything for us from the ER visit (they personally escorted us to the ER to insure my son was

During a difficult time, Axis Health gave me affordable counseling that saved my life. They were professional and also have a crisis line. Might not be typical, but I had a very positive experience with every aspect of their organization. A good way for people on the fringe to get the help they need.
