Eating Recovery Center Awarded 2014 ColoradoBiz Top Company in Healthcare

DENVER, Sept. 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Eating Recovery Center has been awarded the 2014 ColoradoBiz Top Company Award in Healthcare during the 27^th Annual Top Company Awards. The mission behind the Top Company Awards Program is to encourage high standards of performance and to recognize Colorado's most outstanding businesses committed to a greater purpose in the midst of business excellence. Whether that be improving the human condition, the environment or providing jobs to the local community, the goal of The Annual Top Company Awards is to seek out the hardest working companies that also work hard for the benefit of their community.

"What aligns us – along with compassion, competence and collaboration—is the mission that we are on: to take the very best care of patients with serious forms of eating disorders and save lives in doing so," explained Dr. Ken Weiner, Founding Partner and Chief Executive Officer of Eating Recovery Center.

A Top Company Award is widely revered as one of the most competitive professional awards for Colorado companies. The judging panel considers the following criteria in deciding which companies will take home the Top Company Awards: financial performance and growth, community service, operations, timing, sustained excellence, competition within the market, perseverance and noteworthy achievement.

Most recently, Eating Recovery Center celebrated the opening of its sixth Denver facility. This new facility boasts 24 residential treatment slots and 36 partial hospitalization slots for adult women and men. In addition, the center hopes to add an additional 40 jobs this fall as the facility begins treating more patients.

"85-90% of the patients who come to us in Denver are from outside of the state of Colorado," explained Dr. Weiner. "So we are truly a national/international treatment center."
