Alexandra Morales, DVM

Dr. Alexandra Morales was born on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico and developed a love of animals from an early age.
Dr. Morales completed her undergraduate degree at Sagrado Corazón in Puerto Rico with a major in Biology and a minor in Foreign Languages. After graduating, she decided to take some time off to travel and do some farm work in the South of France before starting her veterinary medicine degree at Louisiana State University (Geaux Tigers!). During that time, Dr. Morales enjoyed spending her free time visiting family back in Puerto Rico, reading, learning how to macramé, and caring for her pets.
After graduation, Dr. Morales practiced veterinary medicine in Austin, Texas for 3 years. Now, she and her husband have decided to return to sweet ole’ Baton Rouge and make it their forever home with their 2 children and 2 dogs. Dr. Morales has a special interest in integrating Western and Eastern medicine to provide the best care possible for her patients. Educating clients about their pets is one of her favorite parts of veterinary medicine. Dr. Morales is fluent in English and Spanish and is able to use this to help Capital Heights better communicate and cater to our clients. She can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends at Capital Heights!
