LVCC member since: 2013

Favorite Part of your job: Above all the medicine and surgery, I love forming and enjoying the long term relationships with our clients and patients. To go through the ups and downs with a person, or family, is to love them and it drives me in everything I do. Advanced diagnostics, like endoscopy and ultrasound, as well as more advanced surgeries, like orthopedics and detailed soft tissue surgeries, continue to drive me to learn through any avenue possible.

Pets: A pug named “Butter” and two yellow labs named “Annie” and “Natty.”

Hobbies/Pastimes: I love spending time with my wife and kids as well as being in the woods, on the water, or cheering on all of Louisiana's sports teams. If I can combine my family and being in the outdoors, I'm a happy guy.

Dr. Patrick came to LVCC by way of Las Vegas, Nevada after practicing and training for 2 years just south of the strip. He was raised in Monroe, LA and attended Veterinary school at LSU after early graduation from LA Tech University.After moving to Lafayette to be with his wife, he quickly realized this is where he was meant to be. His focus has been on growing LVCC to meet the needs of our community while bringing higher level diagnostics and surgery skills to our area from his time in Las Vegas. Along with helping grow our wonderful doctor team, Dr Patrick has seen his family expand to 3 dogs and 3 wonderful little boys. His passion has always been on trust-built relationships and has strived to do so in our community through multiple outdoor organizations, such as Ducks Unlimited, and through their church. In his free time, Dr. Patrick enjoys spending time with his friends and family, being in the woods or on the water, and watching any of our Louisiana football teams.
