Dr. Katherine Thimmesch
Co-Owner Dentist: Camellia DentalÂ

An Acadiana local, Dr. Katherine Thimmesch is proud to be serving the same community in which she was raised. Born in Opelousas, Dr. Thimmesch initially gained interest in dentistry by working for Dr. Mike Malone while attending ULL for her undergraduate degree. Upon completion of her studies at LSU Dental School in New Orleans, Dr. Thimmesch returned to Lafayette to work with Dr. Malone as well as her associate, Dr. Emily Foreman. After over a decade of practicing together, Dr. Thimmesch and Dr. Foreman bought the practice from Dr. Malone and built a new state of the art dental facility for Camellia Dental, where they are some of the few dentists in the area that are active members of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. Specializing in general and family dentistry, Dr. Thimmesch is proud to continue serving her Acadiana neighbors. In addition to her love for the dental profession, Katherine also enjoys giving back to the community with various charities and participating in missions to help the underserved. Along with her husband Toby and her three children Anne Katherine, Grace Ellen, and George, Dr. Thimmesch enjoys traveling and experiencing the great outdoors with her family and friends.
