Hello and welcome - I'm so glad you are here!
A bit about me:
Professionally, I am a general surgeon and currently a partner in a multi specialty group called Flagstaff Surgical Associates. My practice includes general surgery, trauma surgery with a special interest in breast surgery and cosmetic injections. I am from Lafayette, LA, went to LSU for undergrad followed by LSU in New Orleans for medical school. I completed my general surgery residency in Phoenix, AZ in 2013. I am board certified in general surgery and I am a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons.
On a personal level I'm a proud mother of two beautiful boys, wife of a phenomenal husband who is a member of the AZ Air National Guard, and I am an avid equestrian! I started riding when I was 7 years old at Tally-Ho Stables in Youngsville, LA. I participated in the USPC and competed in Eventing until college. I rode on the LSU Equestrian Team before I was forced to take a break from riding to concentrate on medical school. I was happy to start riding again after the completion of my residency. Today, you can find me and my horse Genesis H competing in the Jumper ring.
Thank you again!
All the best,
Dr. Kate Preston
