Henry Porter recognized the value of holistic healthcare after receiving treatment at two Seventh-day Adventist Sanitariums. His experiences at these sanitariums changed his life and the face of healthcare in Denver forever.

The care he received left such an impact on him that he became committed to opening a similar facility in Denver, CO. Today, AdventHealth Porter along with its sister facilities, continues to apply the same philosophy of care in treating the mind, body, and spirit.
