Dr. Gilbert Patterson

Dr. Gil Patterson received his veterinary degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 2011, and then ventured into the heartland to work as a swine practitioner in Minnesota. His passion for animal health and community well-being led him to pursue a Masters of Public Health (MPH) at the University of Minnesota, as well as achieve Board Certification in the American College of Veterinary Preventive Medicine. In 2016, Dr. Patterson moved to the Tri-Cities area with his family to join the faculty at the newly formed Lincoln Memorial University, College of Veterinary Medicine. Dr. Patterson continues to impart his knowledge in swine medicine and veterinary public health as an instructor at LMU, and he has also ventured into the innovative world of veterinary telehealth, working to shape the future of virtual veterinary care. When not in the clinic, Dr. Patterson can be found spending time with his family, playing guitar at a local bluegrass jam, shredding down a ski slope, exploring a new hiking trail, or casting a trout-line in one of the area's many rivers. He has two very hairy and lazy Chow Chow dogs, Pineapple and Piper, that always keep things interesting while at home. As part of the All Tails team, Dr. Patterson is eager to contribute his unique blend of expertise and enthusiasm to our clinic. His holistic approach, bolstered by a strong foundation in preventive medicine, ensures that every pet receives the best possible care.
