We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of one of our own, Dr. Suzanne Hanson, who passed away this week. Dr. Hanson received her veterinary degree from UC Davis and went on to open her own practice here in Chico, Animal Health Care Practice. She joined Mangrove Hospital a few years later and then became a part of Valley Oak Veterinary Center in 2011. Dr. Hanson was an incredible veterinarian and skilled surgeon. She was a dedicated mentor to new veterinarians as well as a passionate advocate for our community serving tirelessly with the City of Chico and Northwest SPCA. Dr. Hanson’s legacy lives on in the countless lives she touched and her unwavering commitment to veterinary medicine. Her absence is already deeply felt and she will be profoundly missed as a colleague, a mentor and a dear friend.
