Titus Patton was conferred a Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Oklahoma State University on May 10, 2024.

He graduated summa cum laude and was accepted into the Phi Zeta National Honor Society for Veterinary Medicine as a top-10 student in the Class of 2024. He would like to thank the Choctaw Nation for supporting his education through the Higher Education and Career Development Programs.

He has accepted a one-year position as a Small Animal Rotating Intern at Iowa State University beginning in June. He hopes that this will lead to an opportunity for advanced training in small animal surgery. He and his wife, Claire, look forward to welcoming their first child in August.

Titus is the son of Jason and Beth Patton and the grandson of Brenda and Leon Patton of Calera, Oklahoma.
