🌟 Shining Stars in Action: Recognizing Challis Gottman 🌟
We’re kicking off 2026 with Shining Stars in Action, a recognition series that highlights our Axis team members who go above and beyond for each other and the communities we serve — starting with a huge kudos to Challis Gottman.

Challis balances numerous responsibilities across our Southwest Region with calm, clear communication and genuine compassion for both colleagues and clients. She has a real pulse on primary care needs (pun intended) and a willingness to lead change while consistently advocating for coordinated, patient-centered care.

💫💫Thank you, Challis, for your dedication to our organization and the people we serve. You are a valued and appreciated member of the Axis team.💫💫

Choosing a psychiatric provider is more than just scheduling an appointment; it’s committing to comprehensive, long-term support for your well-being. When you meet with a psychiatric provider at Axis, you’re not expected to have all the answers. Together, you will talk through what you’ve been experiencing, what’s getting in the way of daily life, and how you could feel better. That might include new or different medication options, or simply having a consistent place to check in.

Psychiatric care at Axis is part of our whole-person approach to care. Over time, that relationship can mean fewer crises, more stability, and more room for the things that matter most to you, your family, and your community.

You don’t have to wait for things to get “bad enough” to reach out. Axis is here with care when you need it.

Establishing care with a primary care provider isn’t just “going to the doctor.” It’s choosing a partner for your health journey. When you have a primary care provider, you have:

• Someone who knows your story—not just your chart
• A trusted place to turn when something feels off, big or small
• Preventive care that helps catch issues early, before they become crises
• A guide who can connect you to specialists, mental health, dental care, and community resources
• Support that understands the realities of living, working, and raising a family in rural Colorado communities

Over time, that relationship means fewer repeats of your history, fewer gaps in care, and more space to focus on what matters most to you and your family.

Axis Health System is committed to whole-person care so you can get the care you need when you need it. If you’re thinking about the next step in your own health journey, establishing care with a primary care provider can be a powerful place to start. Schedule an appointment at Axis over the holidays, one of the best gifts you can give to yourself and those who depend on you.
