1971: PPVC opens - Pikes Peak Veterinary Clinic was founded in 1971 by Drs. Larry and Sue Wiseman. 1980s: Dr. Fowler buys PPVC - In the early 1980s, Dr. Jeff Fowler joined the Wisemans and later purchased the practice from them. Sue Wiseman still brings her pets to see us. 1999: Dr. Marsden takes the lead - Dr. Melanie Marsden joined Dr. Fowler and eventually purchased PPVC when he retired. Dr. Fowler is still a regular face around our clinic and has come back to help out a few days a week. 2009: New facility - We moved from a two-exam-room building just a few doors away into our current facility with four exam rooms and better equipment. 2022: Expanding the property - We expanded our current location by purchasing the entire building and renovating a new 'Quiet Critter Space.' This smaller, quieter area is specifically designed for cats and exotic pets, as well as laser treatments
