Team Notes

  • Walter R. Cazayoux, MD has practiced in Covington since 2007 and brings long tenure and deep community ties to the practice.
  • Two advanced practice providers are starting in the Covington practice, supporting outpatient care.
  • Colin Goudelocke, MD, a fellowship-trained urologist based on the South Shore, rotates to Covington to extend subspecialty coverage.

Advanced Practice Support

  • Two advanced practice providers are starting in the Covington practice.
  • APP coverage is outpatient only, with the flexibility to pivot as the practice grows.
  • This structure lets the urologists concentrate clinical time on surgical and complex cases.

System Support

The Covington practice operates as a community urology team while drawing on the resources of Ochsner South Shore in New Orleans. South Shore carries the subspecialists, including andrology and male fertility, for cases that run beyond community urology scope. That backup gives a North Shore urologist a clear referral path for complex cancer care and fertility patients without sending them outside the Ochsner system.
