In addition to patient care, Dr. Suzanne enjoys spending time with the family, traveling, hiking, stand-up paddleboarding, and trail riding.
Dr. Suzanne decided to become a doctor at age 6! This is because her eyes were very nearsighted but she was unaware that it was not normal. Once she got her first pair of glasses, she fell in love with her optometrist and decided she wanted to help people as he helped her!
