Luke is a 2012 graduate of Washington State University's College of Veterinary Medicine. After graduation he practiced for 4 years in rural mixed practice, before spending 2 years at an equine referral and surgical center in Montana. In June of 2018, he moved back to Maple Creek and opened Creekside Veterinary Service. Luke spends most of his time at work split between bovine and equine cases. Since expanding clinic facilities with the addition of the equine facility, he has been able to focus on advanced equine dentistry, equine lameness with a focus on diagnostic imaging, medical management of wounds, septic joints and tendon sheaths. He is always learning and seeking out opportunities to expand his skill set - which in turns means he is always adding to the list of professional services he offers.

Luke is a past member of the Saskatchewan Veterinary Medical Association’s Practice Standards Committee, where he represented the interests of rural large animal veterinarians and practices in discussions on provincial regulations.

Licensed to practice veterinary medicine in Saskatchewan, Alberta, and Montana, Luke maintains memberships with the American Association of Equine Practitioners, American Association of Bovine Practitioners, the International Society of Equine Locomotor Pathology (ISLEP), and the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association.

He also volunteers professionally through his involvement with Spotlight: Equine Vet Practice in Canada, an initiative dedicated to promoting sustainability and long-term careers in equine medicine. Known for his willingness to pitch in—whether it’s assisting with complex cases, sharing knowledge at educational events, or lending a hand to a fellow vet—Luke is passionate about supporting his colleagues and serving the ranching community he calls home.

In his spare time Luke enjoys fishing, hunting, working on his old Ford, and spending time with his family.
