Meet Our Doctor
Dr. Gerald Darr DeJean II was born and raised in Opelousas, Louisiana. He graduated from Westminster Christian Academy before moving to Baton Rouge to earn his Bachelor of Science degree from Louisiana State University. He then earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery from the LSU Health Sciences Center in New Orleans, Louisiana in 2007.
Dr. DeJean always felt called back home, so in 2010 he returned to the area and began practicing in Lafayette, Louisiana. A few years later, Dr. DeJean was given the opportunity to join Dr. Albert Huguet in his practice in Opelousas, Louisiana, fulfilling Dr. DeJean’s dream to serve the people of his hometown. Upon Dr. Huguet’s passing, Dr. DeJean had the honor of taking over the practice. Since then, Dr. DeJean has been committed to the staff, patients, and legacy of Dr. Huguet. Dr. DeJean prides himself on bringing top-notch dentistry to his hometown.
Dr. Darr DeJean is a member of the American Dental Association, the Acadiana District Dental Association, and the Louisiana Dental Association. When he is not practicing dentistry he enjoys hunting, fishing, and spending time with his wife, Laura, and their two daughters.
