Visiting Ancillary Services, Inc.

A nonprofit organization

We are the most efficient, and effective non-profit visiting dental service in Colorado. We treat "People" not "Patients" - putting the clinical lens in focus with the highest level of compassionate care. Many of our patients can not afford dental care so we provide care as we can.

Testimonials

I have been very impressed with Dr. Barr. Everyone who has come from VAS has been very professional. Dr. Barr is wonderful with our patients, who can be difficult at times and he is a great DDS. I hope the same great people will continue to come to our facility!
--- Robin, Centre Avenue Health

I appreciate the quick response I get with VAS. Whether it is a return phone call or a last-minute addition to the dental schedule, I can rely on VAS to respond in a timely, helpful manner. Much thanks to Dr. Singh and Roberta, too! They treat our residents very well.
--- Laura, Manorcare Denver

I have been very satisfied with VAS related to dental care for the residents. The dentists serving the residents have been wonderful in building relationship with the residents, services provided, progress notes and communication with the nurses and myself. They also make themselves readily available when we ask for emergency dental care for the residents as well. Moreover, Vicki, who coordinates all our dental services, is absolutely outstanding as well. Any time I've called Vicki for help, she has been WONDERFUL!!!!!
--- Connie, Mountain Vista Healthcare

I truly appreciate Vicki's communication and organization. We are so grateful that you provide this service and have staff that truly exceed expectations.

Background Statement

Visiting Ancillary Services (VAS), Inc. was founded in 2010 by the organization's CEO and founder, Kenneth Kucera. Mr. Kucera, along with his team of healthcare professionals saw the challenges faced by long term care facilities and their residents due to a lack of access and funding concerning dental health and hearing. Based in Denver, Colorado, VAS works to assist program participants find the resources and education necessary to their health. The organization currently provides ancillary services to 4,650 patients in close to 100 facilities.

VAS began its operation by providing outreach exclusively through long term care facilities. Motivated by the importance of the organization's charitable mission, the organization's workforce operated without any expectations of payment during the first six months of operations. As the program experienced success and growth, the organization began expanding its operations from serving 10 facilities to its current total of 100 and has a current staff of 37.

CEO, Kenneth Kucera, is a well-versed business leader with over 30 years of experience serving as a high-level executive for high tech companies throughout the years. This solid background has provided Mr. Kucera and Visiting Ancillary Services the process, procedural tools and leadership skills needed to cultivate a successful and growing charitable enterprise. Furthermore, the organization's board consists of a board-certified dentist, an audiology professional and three well-established business professionals. Each of these individuals brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the mission and outreach of the organization.
