Man, did we luck out! Dr. Travis has been the answer to our prayers! Dr. Travis is a Haughton, Louisiana native, and an LSU Undergrad Alum. Geaux Tigers! He knocked it out of the park at LSU Vet School as valedictorian of his class, which was already chock full of future standout veterinarians, including Dr. Katie’s cousin, Dr. Brendan Batt!
Dr. Travis graduated with an interest in horses, and immediately took a job in Kentucky after graduation. After a few years, he moved back to his home state of Louisiana, because he couldn’t resist being away from his family and the culture he loves! Upon return, he worked in both large and small animal medicine.
His diverse background lends to his many skills, which include having a great understanding of animal biology and behavior, and the abilities to improvise in times of need, remain cool under pressure, and always keep a great rapport with our clients (both 2 legged and 4 legged)! He really takes pride in the relationships he builds with our clients and their beloved pets.
• Dr. Travis is married to Erika Holland from Hammond, who is a pediatric dietitian at Ochsner, and they have two sons- John Patrick and Truett. • Dr. Travis has a pilot’s license, and thoroughly enjoys scaring his wife on his aerial jaunts. • Outside of work, Dr. Travis most enjoys spending time with his family, outdoor activities, and LSU sports
