Meet Dr. Jan Crowe
Owner, Veterinarian, and the Heart Behind Creekside Vet Clinic
Independently owned and intentionally different in the way we care for pets and families.
While many veterinary clinics have changed ownership, veterinarians, and staff over the years, Dr. Crowe has remained the familiar face at Creekside since opening the practice in 1998. Creekside has remained in the same location since opening, back when the neighboring store was Piggly Wiggly. Today that neighbor is Big Lots.
Dr. Crowe earned her DVM from Tuskegee University School of Veterinary Medicine in 1984 and has provided veterinary care for dogs and cats throughout the Lowcountry for more than 42 years. She created Creekside because she wanted to build a veterinary practice where relationships mattered, clients felt valued, and pets received consistent care from a veterinarian who truly knew them.
That vision became Creekside. Many of the pets Dr. Crowe cares for today belong to families she has known for decades. In some cases, she has cared for multiple generations of pets within the same family—a testament to the trust and lasting relationships at the heart of Creekside.
We believe veterinary medicine is more than treating pets. It's about caring for the people who love them.
The Creekside Mission
Dr. Crowe wrote Creekside's mission statement before she even opened the doors. "We are here for the Life of your pet because we care." What she means by that, is that she's there for the first puppy and kitten visits through adulthood to
the golden years.
The Creekside Promise
We promise to:
- Treat every pet and family with respect.
- Listen carefully and take the time to understand your concerns.
- Provide thoughtful, thorough veterinary care.
- Communicate clearly so you can make informed decisions for your pet.
- Create a calm, welcoming environment for pets and the people who love them.
- Build relationships that last through every stage of your pet's life.
We don't just care for pets. We care for the families who love them. That's the Creekside difference.
The Creekside Story
When Dr. Jan Crowe opened Creekside Vet Clinic in 1998, she didn't simply lease a space and move in. She helped build out the clinic.
With the support of friends and contractors, Dr. Crowe worked on the clinic herself - painting walls, installing cabinets, laying flooring, and helping create the welcoming environment clients know today.
So when staff and friends say she built Creekside with her own hands, it's actually true. Since opening day, her goal has remained the same:
To provide exceptional veterinary care while building lasting relationships with the families who trust us with their pets.
Familiar Faces - Lasting Relationships
One thing that makes Creekside different is our long-term team. Many of our staff members have been part of Creekside for years, creating the familiarity and continuity that are so important to the way we care for pets and families.
When you visit Creekside, you're not starting over with a new face every time. You'll see people who know you, know your pet, and understand how much your relationship with Creekside matters.
“Continuity of care is so important. When you and your pet see the same doctor time after time and year after year, pets are more than a medical record—they're family. And the same is true for clients, too! We build lasting relationships. We mean it when we say, ‘We are here for the life of your pet because we care!’”
— Dr. Jan Crowe
