Durango family clinic has new owner
Dr. Kirsten “Kicki” Searfus recently purchased Mountain View Family Healthcare from Dr. Megan Lewis Grotefond, who has relocated out of the Durango area.
Searfus is a board-certified family physician who cares for patients of all ages and has been in active practice in Durango since 2006. She offers a clinic model that strives to help patients improve health through prevention, intensive support for lifestyle changes and optimal chronic-disease management.
She provides health care in the setting of Mountain View TLC (Total Life Concept), a collaboration of health professionals that includes Marissa Kleinsmith, a registered dietician; Judith Vanderryn, a behavioral health specialist; and Kevin Dehlinger, a fitness consultant.
Before coming to Durango, Searfus served on the clinical faculty at the University of California, San Diego.
