Gunnison Valley Health Expands Specialty Services with New Dermatology Clinic

Gunnison Valley Health is proud to announce the launch of its new dermatology services, bringing advanced skin care expertise to the community starting March 3, 2025. Leading this initiative is Dr. Nickolas Poulos, a highly skilled, board-certified dermatologist with extensive experience in medical, surgical and cosmetic dermatology.

Dr. Poulos earned his Doctorate of Osteopathic Medicine from Nova Southeastern University and completed a Traditional Rotating Internship and Dermatology Residency at Larkin Community Hospital. With board certification from the American Board of Dermatology, he is also a Fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology and the American Osteopathic College of Dermatology. Before joining Gunnison Valley Health, Dr. Poulos founded Global Dermatology in Colorado Springs, where he provided personalized, patient-centered care.

“We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Poulos to Gunnison Valley Health,” said Jason Amrich, CEO of Gunnison Valley Health. “His expertise and commitment to high-quality dermatologic care will provide our community with long-awaited access to essential and advanced skin care services and decrease wait times for dermatology services for our community”

Dr. Poulos brings a wide range of dermatological expertise, including:

• Routine skin checks and treatment for common conditions such as acne, eczema and psoriasis.
• Advanced surgical techniques, including Mohs micrographic surgery for skin cancer.
• Cosmetic procedures such as Botox® injections and chemical peels.

Starting March 3, Dr. Poulos will be available for appointments at two convenient locations:

• The Specialty Clinic at Gunnison Valley Health Hospital on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays
• Gunnison Valley Orthopedics in Crested Butte on Tuesdays

“Living in the Gunnison Valley means embracing an active and outdoor lifestyle, but it also comes with unique skin care challenges,” said Dr. Poulos. “I’m excited to bring personalized dermatology services to our community so residents can enjoy the care they need without the hassle of traveling far from home.”

Patients can schedule appointments now by calling 970-641-3927. The dermatology clinic is now accepting new patients.

By offering dermatology services locally, Gunnison Valley Health makes it easier than ever for everyone in the Gunnison Valley to receive the care they need without leaving the valley. This expansion reflects Gunnison Valley Health’s continued commitment to providing comprehensive, community-focused care.
