Health Services in Boulder Creek: The Providers Who Practice in Town

Local Guides

Apr 13

You can fill a prescription or book a dental appointment in Boulder Creek. Primary care, urgent care and hospital services require a trip farther afield; our healthcare guide covers those options. This page lists the providers and wellness services based in town, with contact details for planning an appointment.

This page collects the providers who actually practice in Boulder Creek, with addresses, phones, and how to get in the door. Nothing here is medical advice. A provider's license status and insurance panels both change, so confirm each before you book.

The dentist: Boulder Creek Dental

Address: 13270 Big Basin Way, Boulder Creek
Phone: 831-338-2131
Website: bouldercreekdental.com
Hours: open Monday through Thursday; closed Friday through Sunday; call for current times

The town has its own dental office, one block off Highway 9 on Big Basin Way, in a practice that describes itself as serving Santa Cruz County for over fifty years. Dr. Keith Johnson, DDS, has practiced there for more than two decades and became the owner along the way. The office handles general and family dentistry: preventive care and cleanings, crowns (single, bridge, and implant), dentures, and partials. It's accepting new patients as of this writing, with registration forms available on the site, and appointments are booked by phone or through the site's contact form.

The chiropractor: Kaplan Chiropractic

Address: 154 Forest Street, Boulder Creek
Phone: 831-338-0677
Website: kaplanchiro.com
Hours: Tuesday 7 to 11 a.m.; Thursday 3 to 6 p.m.; otherwise closed

Dr. Jeffrey Kaplan's longtime chiropractic office sits just off the strip on Forest Street and practices the Gonstead system of chiropractic. The catch is the calendar: the Boulder Creek office keeps two windows a week, Tuesday mornings and Thursday afternoons, so this is an appointment stop, not a walk-in. Call rather than drop by, and if your schedule can't bend around those windows, plan ahead. The practice serves Boulder Creek and the San Lorenzo Valley.

Skin care: SuperNatural Beauty & Aesthetics

Address: 12615 Highway 9, Boulder Creek
Phone: 661-889-5728
Website: supernatural.beauty
Booking: by appointment only, through its website

SuperNatural Beauty & Aesthetics is a med spa run by an aesthetic registered nurse. Services include neurotoxin injections, dermal fillers, chemical peels, microneedling, red light therapy and medical-grade skincare. Booking starts with a consultation, online or by phone. Our SuperNatural profile explains more about the practice.

The rest of the routine

The everyday layer is covered too. Boulder Creek Pharmacy fills prescriptions on Central Avenue and delivers free throughout the valley, which matters more up a long driveway than it ever did in a city.

For movement, Mountain Sangha runs hot yoga, Pilates, and breathwork classes on Highway 9, and Treetop Pilates teaches classical Pilates at 13350 West Park Avenue, Unit A1. Massage lives in town as well, at Elevated Wellness, also on Forest Street.

What still means a drive down the valley

There’s no primary care office, urgent care or hospital in Boulder Creek itself; the nearest clinic is in Ben Lomond and the nearest ER is in Santa Cruz. For a physician, specialist or same-day walk-in care, use the healthcare guide to find contact details and locations.
