CENTENNIAL, Colo., Sept. 12, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Andrew Graham, President and CEO of Denver medical billing firm Clinic Service Corporation, has been elected Chairman of the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce.

"We are fortunate to be business people during a time where business generally is good, especially in Colorado," Graham said.

Graham said the Chamber truly is a place "where all businesses, regardless of size, have a voice" in decision making and strategy.

"My goal is always to surround myself with people who are ridiculously smart, and I am humbled by the team that join me on the SMDC Board," Graham said. "We all share a respect for the long traditions nurtured by this chamber. We look forward to the work ahead and invite all to join us."

Robert Golden, SMDC President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Andrew follows in the footsteps of a stellar group of past chairs that have set a wonderful course of direction for us."
