Highlands Ranch, CO Drs and Health Practioners

Since his father was a WWII naval doctor and small-town surgeon, Dr. Lawrence Kuljis was introduced to the medical profession at a young age. He drew inspiration from his dad’s thoughtful care of friends and neighbors, enrolling in school at Marquette University and eventually building a successful career in the dental arts. Today, Dr. Kuljis returns the favor by caring for his still-active 98-year-old father and continuing the family tradition of healing through preventive care and dental procedures.

Ably led by office manager Lina—who happens to be Dr. Kuljis’ wife—the friendly staff of qualified hygienists and dental assistants pride themselves on creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Guests relax in the sunny, spacious lounge before retiring to the comfort of a treatment room with breathtaking views of the area skyline and chairside computer terminals for easy access to records and saved Minesweeper games. Dr. Kuljis and his team safeguard long-term oral health with regular checkups and digital oral x-rays and perform smile makeovers with cosmetic treatments, crowns, veneers, and bridges. Patients may also opt for a complimentary hand massage during visits to help them relax during their service.

The services at U-Care Health Screenings fall into two categories: facial rejuvenation and health screenings. Using ultrasound-imaging technology, technicians can spy on internal organ systems and vessels in real-time video rendered in 3-D digital color. These images help them identify risk factors for cancer, stroke, or spontaneous combustion, giving patients an opportunity to take preventative measures or seek life-saving attention from their doctor.

The team also employs the ultrasound hand piece to tighten tired skin and tone facial muscles through a noninvasive process called Ultherapy. Ultherapy has been featured on programs such as The Doctors and Today, as well as in a multitude of lifestyle and fashion magazines.

The cold, blue lights that shine inside Screamin’ White Teeth’s office are not for decoration. Each one emits a wavelength of exactly 465 nanometers—the most effective wavelength for activating the hydrogen-peroxide gel used to whiten teeth. The trained staff slathers teeth in this gel during 15-minute whitening sessions, performing up to three consecutive treatments to reveal the most noticeable results. Previous patients have seen teeth lighten more than eight shades after a triple appointment. The whitening formula used at Screamin’ White Teeth is both safe and effective on natural teeth, as well as veneers, caps, crowns, and dentures made with Chiclets.

Red, itchy eyes. Sneezing. A scratchy throat. These symptoms, among many others, are all too familiar to individuals who suffer from allergies. At The Allergy Stop, Doctors of Chiropractic Branan Dewees and Steven Schwartz aim to correct these reactions via laser technology. Both are board-licensed chiropractors backed by more than a decade of experience treating uncontrollable responses triggered by food, animals, and chiming bells. With each patient, they use a three-step process that identifies allergies, develops a solution, and delivers it through drug-free, noninvasive frequencies that are broadcasted into the body to correct the immune system. In addition to addressing allergies, the center offers EVOX treatments, which use laser technology to balance emotions.

After two decades of working in the medical field, Janie Medrano was disenchanted with pharmaceutical medicine. She decided to devote her time to teaching people how to treat what ails them through holistic means, rather than by swallowing pills or bubblegum-flavored band-aids. Janie opened The Wholistic Healing Center, where her greatest enjoyment is recommending options to meet clients’ nutritional or detoxification needs. She’s joined by Bonnie “Jodie” Huggins, an 11-year holistic veteran, who guides patrons to wellness through treatments such as colon hydrotherapy, reiki, and the emotional release of holistic kinesiology.

Much like a photographer or a supermodel, Dr. Jonathan Rones built his career on smiles. He draws on more than 16 years of experience to treat dental problems and correct cosmetic issues, in addition to teaching his patients the importance of preventive care.

To fortify weakened, cracked, or stained teeth, he installs crowns or white composite resins. Custom dental trays whiten teeth with a safe and gentle bleaching solution, and implants replace teeth that have been lost, extracted, or donated to the client’s favorite hockey team. In addition to using x-ray technology to locate hidden cavities, Dr. Rones uses intraoral cameras to view teeth from different angles and spot small problems before they grow into major concerns.
