Meet Our Team
David Hesse, DVM (He,Him)
Hospital Medical Leader
General Practitioner - member of the American Veterinary Medical Association, the Louisiana Veterinary Medical Association, and the Southeast Louisiana Veterinary Association
Practice limited to companion animal medicine and surgery
I followed my father, who was a veterinarian for over 40 years at Gretna Animal Hospital, into the profession and joined the practice with him in 1978 in Gretna. I became a solo general practitioner when my dad retired in 1984.
Graduated from LSU School of Veterinary Medicine in 1978.
Practiced for 46 years in private practice at Gretna Animal Hospital in Gretna, Louisiana before joining Petco in 2023. I am a lifelong resident of Metairie, Louisiana.
I am an avid outdoor enthusiast and conservationist, and I enjoy all outdoor sports and activities including boating, hiking, fishing, and bike riding.
I currently have one pet, an 8 year old Catahoula-Lab mix named Bourre, who serves as our ambassador here at VTC-Harvey.
