"I’m proud to be part of the foundation that brought 9Health Fair to Colorado communities. It gives me a great sense of purpose, particularly in the rural communities. I’m the lucky one. I get back far more than I give."

“My thyroid level was really high and 9Health Fair tried, but couldn’t reach me by phone. So, through their follow up process, 9Health Fair expedited my results to my house and included a cover letter saying that I had to seek immediate medical attention. I can’t tell you how much I appreciated their persistence in tracking me down.”
Theresa H.
9Health Fair participant since 1998

MEDICAL ASSOCIATES Overview
Each year, 9Health Fair collaborates with professional healthcare organizations
and associations for the development of health screenings conducted at the In the
Community health fairs. These groups, referred to as our "associates," share the
responsibility of bringing the expertise of their specialty and providing professional
staff to many Metro Denver and statewide 9Health Fair sites.
9Health Fair "partners" with organizations that represent the finest in their specialty
fields and that share our mission of promoting health awareness and encouraging
individuals to assume responsibility for their own health.
Our associates have a state-wide presence, in that their membership reaches all
of the community of Colorado. Accordingly, each partner organization reviews, revises
or develops the medical protocol appropriate to the skill of their profession or
specialty.
Many professional organizations perform screenings at various 9Health Fair sites
as a means of giving back to their community. Working with the 9Health Fair staff,
associations recruit from among their members and colleagues to provide these valuable
professional services at various 9Health Fair sites.
