Dr. Jennifer Veaco

Jennifer Veaco, MD

Family Medicine

Dr. Veaco joins Hegg Health Center with a passion for building lasting relationships with families and delivering comprehensive care. After practicing in the Phoenix area, she was drawn to Rock Valley for its small-town charm, family-oriented lifestyle, and the opportunity to raise her two children alongside her husband in a close-knit, supportive community.

With a background in family medicine, Dr. Veaco enjoys caring for patients of all ages and is especially passionate about supporting families through every stage of life. As a certified lactation consultant, she provides expert guidance to breastfeeding parents and takes pride in helping new families thrive.

A cancer survivor herself, Dr. Veaco brings a unique perspective to preventive care. She emphasizes education, compassion, and evidence-based medicine in her approach. Whether she’s seeing a child for a wellness visit or helping grandparents manage chronic conditions, her goal is simple: to keep families healthy—together.
