YOUNGBLOOD EQUINE VETERINARY SERVICES - Key Persons


Dr. Keith Youngblood

Dr. Keith Youngblood, DVM is a graduate of Mississippi University college of veterinary medicine. Upon graduation he completed a Rotating Internship at Weatherford Equine Medical Center. There he studied Internal Medicine under Dr. Rob Franklin, Surgery and Lameness under Dr. Jeff Foland, and Reproduction under Dr. Justin Rhitthaler. Upon completion of the internship, Dr. Youngblood spent time in mixed animal practice before starting an exclusively equine mobile practice. Dr. Youngblood is married to Tamara "Tammy" Youngblood in October of 2012, and his son Brazos Youngblood was born the following year. His hobbies include spending time with his wife and son and caring for horses. His passion for horses comes from many years of raising, showing, and competing in equine events. It appears that his son shares the same compassion for horses. He is most often asked if he currently has any horses of his own, but his response is that "he enjoys providing medical care to horses now, more than he ever did competing." Youngblood Equine is honored to have Shannon Bourgeois as our Veterinary Assistant. She is an avid rider and competes in Barrel Racing. We here at YEVS are very happy to have her and she has already proven to be an asset to YEVS.
