About Health Horizons
We strive to be gentle, quiet and peaceful as we deliver care
We wanted a symbol for Health Horizons, which would represent our goals, aspirations and pledge to our patients. All of this is embodied in a stained glass window designed by David Caffery and created by Barbara Chapman for our West Mesa office entry.

At Health Horizons, we want to be on the leading edge of health care delivery for our patients, symbolized by the rising sun. In addition, we continue to look for unexplored areas, which need to be addressed in delivery of education to our patients symbolized by the mountains. Last, we want to be gentle, quiet and peaceful as we deliver care, symbolized by our original hot air balloon, “The Enchanted Stork.”

Guiding you through your unique care needs and health choices
At Health Horizons we are a dedicated team of providers that specialize in taking a personal approach to your health. From young adulthood and beyond, we offer compassionate, comprehensive care to help you stay well throughout life’s changes.
