Deer Creek Staff - Vets in Phoenix

Protecting and sharing the special love of animals

Suzanne Higgins, DVM

Suzanne Higgins, DVMDr. Suzanne Higgins graduated from the Colorado State University College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences in 1991.  Her bachelor of science degree was in Agribusiness from ASU in 1986.


Dr H. worked at several practices and performed relief veterinary services until spring 1997. She then opened DCAH as a start up business in March of 1997. Her first employee was one part-time technician. The hospital offered boarding, grooming and medical services from the start.  Dr. Higgins often worked alone early on in the practice. She often groomed dogs herself and for the first two years, cared for all the boarding animals every evening and on weekends. 


The practice continued to grow and Dr. Higgins began looking for land to build the new free standing hospital in 2002.  The parcel of land was located in 2004 and the planning was started!  In April of 2005,  Dr. Beth Robbins started as an associate.  Ground was broken for the new building in July of 2006, and ready to move in on April of 2007!  Stop by to check out our beautiful 10,000 square foot 2.5 acre facility!
