About Aurora Family Medicine Ctr

Aurora Family Medicine Center is located in Aurora, Colorado. Our practice includes all aspects of Family Medicine. We welcome all patients regardless of age, sex, or type of medical problem. We perform routine and emergency care of adults (including geriatrics), as well as children and newborns. We do minor surgery and orthopedics in the office, referring major surgery and severe fractures to the appropriate specialist. Whenever possible, we assist these other doctors in the operating room during your procedure, as well as help with your pre- and post-operative care.

Women's health care is a focus for all of us, especially our two female Physician's Assistants. This includes pap smears, birth control counseling, and treatment options for menopause. Finally, we provide both family and individual counseling, when it is requested or required. Dr. Patt has a special interest in smoking cessation.

We are all interested in teaching, and will frequently have medical students, physician assistant students, interns and residents spending time under our supervision.

The practice was founded by Dr. Richard Patt in 1976. Dr. Barry Sundland joined the group in 1989. Bruce Zieger, our first Physician's Assistant joined in 1995. Candace Bassett, also a Physician's Assistant, began 2018. Our third Physician's Assistant, Andrea Moon (who happens to be Dr. Patt's daughter!) joined the practice in 2005.
