About Kathryn G. Strother, MD

My approach to your health starts with compassion and a desire to listen. Understanding your goals for vitality and developing a personalized plan to help you achieve them are central to my practice of family medicine. Healing happens and wellness is maintained when there exists a partnership of trust between a proactive patient and a caring doctor who educates and empowers. My goal as your personal doctor is to develop this type of partnership so that I can know you as a whole person and care for you in a warm, welcoming environment.

I am a board-certified family medicine physician serving patients in the Acadiana area. My MDVIP-affiliated practice is located in Youngsville, LA and remains a part of Our Lady of Lourdes Health. I care for families and individuals ages 10 and older. My areas of interest include preventive medicine, early illness detection, hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, metabolic issues, mental health and more.

I started seeing Dr. Strother over 10 years ago. I came to her from doctors who didn’t give me the time of day and thought I was making everything up. Dr. Strother truly listened to me, all of my health issues, and took care of all of my concerns. Five years ago, I came into her office because I felt like something was off and she immediately knew I had something autoimmune going on and she went…

From my first visit with Dr. Strother I have felt like she genuinely cares about my health. She never rushes through a visit and is always willing to answer my questions or talk about my concerns no matter how minor they may be. She always takes time to explain test results or any other issues in a way that I can understand. She is positive and encouraging and gives practical advice that I can…

Dr. Kathryn Strother has been my primary care physician for many years.
I chose her because I was able to observe her for several years as she dealt with my husband's problems during his appointments with her. I was so impressed with her overall approach and concern for her patients, not just the present problem, that I asked her to accept me as a new patient after my former physician…

Frequently Asked Questions

Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.

Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.

MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.
