About Me

Dr. Shaun Spinks is a board-certified family medicine physician. He attended Louisiana Tech University where he received his Bachelor of Science in Animal Biology and a minor in Chemistry. He graduated from Louisiana State University School of Medicine in New Orleans and completed his family medicine residency at Conroe Family Medical Education Foundation in Conroe, Texas.

Dr. Spinks was inspired to become a family physician when he volunteered as a medical student at the Baton Rouge River Center with the Baton Rouge General Family Medicine Residency Program in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. This experience proved beneficial during his residency in Texas, when Hurricane Ike hit Galveston, and he was ultimately selected as lead resident over the disaster management team for the residency and stayed the entire week at the hospital during that storm.

Natives of Zachary, Dr. Spinks and his wife have three children, Nathaniel, Mabry and Gabriel. His wife is also a clinician and graduated with her nursing degree and is a licensed RN. In his spare time, Dr. Spinks enjoys hunting, fishing, reading, listening to and playing music, collecting movies and traveling.

During my recent visit, I had an excellent experience from start to finish. The front desk representative was welcoming and checked me in quickly and efficiently. Dr. Spinks' nurse was attentive and helped ease any anxieties I had about my first appointment. She took the time to listen to my healthcare concerns, verified my medical information, and collected my vitals in a professional and reassuring manner. Dr. Spinks exceeded my expectations with his outstanding bedside manner. He demonstrated genuine concern for my health and made sure that I felt heard and understood. What stood out the most was his role as an educator-he took the time to explain everything in clear, accessible language, which empowered me to actively participate in my healthcare decisions. I truly appreciated the collaborative nature of the visit. Dr. Spinks made me feel like a partner in my care, and I left the appointment with a clear plan and a renewed sense of direction. I look forward to continuing this patient-doctor relationship as we work together to manage my healthcare needs. Thank you to the entire team for a positive and supportive!
