Destrehan Animal Hospital was established in 1989 by Dr. Jack A Moreau. The practice was opened up in the small town of Destrehan, La. It consists of care for small animals such as dogs and cats with occasional rabbits and guinea pigs. Today having served 32 years of animal care, the practice staff has grown tremendously.

Destrehan Animal Hospital performs many services. These include: boarding, bathing, dental cleaning, multiple types of surgery procedures, appointments for annuals and sick pets, pet travel certificates, microchipping, nail trims, in-house urine and bloodwork, x rays, etc. We do our best to provide our clients with the best services. If we can’t fulfill services, we will refer to the specialist needed if it’s beyond our reach.
