We would like to welcome Dr. McCarthy to our team! She will be starting as an ambulatory doctor in September! We’re so excited to have her and look forward to seeing her thrive at Chaparral.
Kerry McCarthy, DVM
“I was born and raised on the west coast in Oregon. I started showing horses at a young age, initially with hunter jumpers then transitioning to the all-around performance horse world showing both AQHA and APHA through middle and high school. In my first year of college, I decided to switch things up and started riding and showing reining and cow horses. I instantly felt at home with the reining industry and continued to ride and show through all of college and continue to do so today. I earned my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Oregon State University. Post graduation I worked at the 6666 Ranch in Texas where I combined my love for the western performance horse and veterinary medicine. There I focused mainly on sports medicine and reproduction which have always been, and will continue to be my passions. I also enjoy general medicine, dentistry, and endoscopy procedures. I take pride in the quality of my work and am always striving for more opportunities to learn new techniques or continue to perfect the skills I already have. My hobbies outside of work and horse showing include hiking, fishing, and spending time with family and friends.”
