Our medical group has proudly served the Pikes Peak region for over 70 years!
Optum welcomed Dr. Kobayashi to our dermatology team in July 2016 and we were able to expand our dermatology services with his addition. Dr. Kobayashi comes to Optum with over 15 years experience in dermatology and is a needed asset in Colorado Springs! When he’s not busy seeing patients, Dr. Kobayashi enjoys hiking, fishing, skiing, and spending time with his family.
