MIND READER

Children here are often experiencing something new and overwhelming. They don’t always have context for what they’re feeling or words to express how much they’re hurting. Our anesthesiology team is specially trained to gain kids’ trust and help them express what they’re going through, so they can feel comfortable and safe. That’s why we employ far more board-certified pediatric anesthesiologists than any hospital in the region.

They know anesthesia and surgery — but more importantly, they know children.

A Better Surgical Experience Through Mediocre Singing Kids grow and change at a more rapid pace than they will at any other time in their lives.

And while they all hit the same basic milestones, they each do it a little differently, and at their own pace.

ALAN BIELSKY, MD

Pediatric Anesthesiologist

Pediatric Anesthesiologist

Those small, individual differences are crucial for pediatric anesthesiologists like Tessa Mandler, MD, and Alan Bielsky, MD. They’re crucial not only for determining the right types, combinations and doses of anesthetics to keep a child asleep during surgery, but also for dispelling a child’s fears beforehand and keeping them comfortable afterwards.

“This is all we do, day in, day out,” says Dr. Mandler. “We take care of kids.”

That care covers everything from how kids will respond to medications to how they’ll cope with the stress of surgery to anticipating how they’re feeling when the patient is too young to communicate that. It’s part of their pediatric specialty training — which adds about two to three years onto their medical education. It takes some creativity, too.

“We had a case a couple of weeks ago where we had to keep a child calm for a couple of minutes,” Dr. Bielsky recalls. “And we could have used a sedative, but that could have had some side effects. So we went directly to the songs from Moana.

“I’m not a great singer, but I know my songs from Moana.”

Those small touches — combined with precision teamwork between anesthesiologists, surgeons, nurses, therapists and many others — add up consistently to the best pediatric surgical outcomes in the region. And they’re available at Children’s Colorado’s South Campus here in Highlands Ranch.

Designed for comfort and convenience, South Campus offers pediatric surgical specialties including urology; ear, nose and throat; sports medicine and many others, all in a space with walk-up parking and private rooms where parents can stay with children until they fall asleep — and be there right when they wake up. Better yet: It’s close to home.

“Our nurses even know how to tie up the perfect baby burrito,” says Dr. Bielsky. “That attention to your child comes first here.”

Making it Look Easy THE FIVE MEN ARRIVED AT ELK RIDGE PARK IN CASTLE PINES ONE AFTER THE OTHER ON A WARM, SUNNY MAY MORNING. They greeted and formally introduced themselves, then got right down to the business at hand: a photoshoot for this month's main feature.

During the course of the shoot, I found myself grappling with my utter lack of know-how in managing a group of just men—there's apparently a trick to it—and serenading them with silly songs to get a smile for the camera isn't one of them!

Fortunately, the aforementioned men are June's Movers + Shakers, and completely capable of making things happen, come what may.

Our June issue contains several articles to keep the men enthused, including our Hot Spot, which introduces an establishment that should go on every man's bucket list, where they can get their hair trimmed and unwind with a good drink (p. 26). We provide the best food for local cave men in "Dude Food," (p. 12), and personal trainer

Make-A-Wish Event in Backcountry Giving Backcountry kicked off their inaugural event by partnering with Make-A-Wish Colorado for a Derby Party on May 5, followed by an evening in Solstice Park on May 10 (pictured), to grant two-year-old Casen his wish of going to Disney World. Casen suffers from VACTERL syndrome, a disease that affects many body systems. More than $7500 was raised for Casen to travel to Disney World on October 23.

1. Casen enjoys time at the Giving BackCountry fund-raiser in honor of his Make-A-Wish request.

Rock Bottom Opening On May 10, Rock Bottom opened its Highlands Ranch location at 1505 Park Central Drive.

In the years since, he’s built a successful practice, Colorado Precision Dentistry & Orthodontics, and raised two children.

“Foremost, dentistry is about people,” Bailey says. “Next, it’s about growing and mastering your skills to serve them even better.”

An avid skier, Bailey also enjoys outdoor photography and mountain biking. “I try to live my life with integrity, which builds trust. I want to be someone my family and patients can trust,” Bailey says.

the Author Josh Weidmann Josh Weidmann, author of four books and senior pastor at Grace Chapel, chuckles as he says that sometimes church members still call him “little Joshie”—Grace is the church he attended as a child.

“I’m a writer called to a pastor’s life,” Weidmann says. He’s the father of four young children with another due in August.

“My best days are when I get to write,” he says, and you’ll find him doing so while drinking a good cup of coffee—he’s also an accomplished brewer and latte artist.

“It’s through my writing that I communicate God’s truth,” Weidmann says.

Weidmann’s books, Dad, If You Only Knew..., Eight Things Teens Want to Tell Their Fathers (But Don’t), and Honest to God: Becoming Brutally Honest with a Gracious God, are available through is website, JoshWeidmann.com.

the Tech Guy Bob Ibison Bob Ibison, a trained geologist, had recently started working for the federal government when he heard about a new opportunity involving telecommunications. Thus began his 31-year career with the U.S. Geological Survey as a network engineer.

“I lived the wild rise of the internet,” Ibison says.

Now retired, Ibison relishes time—and laughter—with his wife and two adult children. An avid long-distance hiker, this summer he’ll tackle the only section of the Pacific Crest Trail he’s yet to hike—Lake Tahoe to Canada.

“I love the peace, beauty and solitude of hiking,” he says. “Time slows down.”

the Special Ed Teacher Steve M. Berninzoni Steve M. Berninzoni coached football for years and loved his role as a mentor. It motivated him to shift careers and become a special education teacher. Now in his tenth year of teaching at Highlands Ranch High School, he’s so grateful.

“Teaching is my passion. I do everything I can to ensure my students aren’t left behind,” Berninzoni says.

This desire prompts him to hire students at the company he owns, 5280 Community Waste Solutions. Berninzoni is also the father of four teenagers.

“If you do right by children, they will do right by the community as adults,” he says.

Now in his thirteenth year, Odice has found his niche teaching creative writing.

“I like to draw stories out of my students.

Stories that maybe they’re dying to tell or that are painful,” Odice says. He and his fiancé have a 10-year-old daughter with another due in October.

“If I were to dream about a legacy, it would be that I’ve helped my students and family tap into their passions,” Odice says.

One of Scissors & Scotch’s top-shelf treatments—all of which are served with a complimentary drink, of course— the Twenty-five Year comes with the works, including a steamed towel treatment, hot-lather back-of-neck-shave, scalp massage, face refresher, paraffin hand dip and a neck, shoulder and hand massage.

“When I get home my hands are softer than my wife’s,” jokes King.

And there’s always something going on, whether it’s two-for-one Happy Hour from 5 to 7 p.m. weekdays or distillery and wine tasting events.
