Las Cruces Sun News
LAS CRUCES — Suzanne Quillen has seen the health care industry in Las Cruces grow.

As the CEO of the Advanced Care Hospital of Southern New Mexico, Quillen was on hand as the medical care facility broke ground, put up its walls and opened its doors. In fact, July marked the one-year anniversary of the first patient to be admitted to the hospital at 4451 E. Lohman Ave. It is located near the Rehabilitation Hospital of Southern New Mexico, which is owned by the same parent company, Ernest Health Inc.
