Meet the folks who make it all happen. We see big potential in every moment, & care deeply about what we do every day.
Dr. Jamie Sulliban has had pets in her life from her earliest memory. She remembers constantly running up to stray animals to hug them, much to her mother’s chagrin! Dr. Sulliban’s personal experiences with the earth’s wonderful creatures made one thing very clear: a career in veterinary medicine was the perfect path for her.
Dr. Jason Sulliban was born and raised in Hawaii, and has always strived to put a little “aloha!” in everything he does. He’s proud to bring his own brand of family-centered, compassionate veterinary care to the pet owners and animals of Las Vegas!
Originally from Salt Lake City, Utah, Dr. Anne Beckes was first introduced to the medical field by her father, who worked as an IV specialist nurse. Dr. Beckes, though, realized that she wanted to use her fascination with medicine in another avenue: animal care. For her, veterinary medicine was the natural choice!
Like many veterinary professionals, Dr. Erin Knickerbocker’s passion began with a childhood love of animals. One of her mother’s favorite stories involves young Dr. Knickerbocker sitting at the neighbor’s fence for hours just to be close to their dog. As she got a bit older, she started to develop a love for science and medicine. Working as a veterinarian just made perfect sense! Now, Dr. Knickerbocker is proud to serve the pets and animal parents of Las Vegas as an Associate Veterinarian.
Dr. Miguel A. Nieves-Maldonado is originally from Toa Alta, Puerto Rico. He grew up in the countryside of the island, always surrounded by animals. His interest in the earth’s creatures became apparent early in life—he was only three years old when he started drawing and painting pictures of animals. Dr. Nieves-Maldonado dedicated his summers off school to rescuing wild animals and rehabilitating them for later release back into the wild.
While many people aspire to become veterinarians when they’re young, Dr. Hanah Sun simply never outgrew that dream. As a child, she had to pet every dog, ride every horse (even the mechanical ones), and feed every animal at the petting zoo. Today, Dr. Hanah is thrilled to have made her childhood dream a reality!
By the time she reached kindergarten, Dr. Brittany was convinced she wanted to be a veterinarian, despite not really understanding everything that a vet does. While her love of animals is what initially drew her to the profession, as she grew and learned more about what it really takes, she only loved it more. Not only does Dr. Brittany enjoy a good challenge, but her passion for science and health care made it a logical choice. And, of course, there’s the chance to work with some of the sweetest patients!
