Third Generation History:

It all began in 1943 with Carlo J. “Doc” Marcello in the Raceland and Thibodaux area, followed by William B. Marcello serving in East Houma for the past 40 years.

Originally from Lafourche Crossing, Carlo Marcello started the family tradition after graduating from Texas A & M University. He was the FIRST veterinarian in the Tri-parish area. He practiced veterinary medicine for over 50 years in both small and large animals. He began in Raceland and then opened Marcello Animal Hospital on Canal Boulevard in Thibodaux.
