Dr. Evan Lehman
Medical Director

Originally from New York, Dr. Lehman grew up in a family of doctors and nurses but his passion for medicine would take a different path. After completing veterinary school on the beautiful island of St Kitts, he returned to the states to complete his clinical training, and developed an interest in emergency and critical care medicine. His love of the outdoors brought him to Colorado. He is the proud father of two amazing children and two rambunctious rescue dogs!
