Dr. Brigid McCarthy

Dr. Brigid McCarthy grew up in the small central California town of Ojai. While attending Stanford University, she was very involved in riding and leadership on the Stanford Equestrian Team. Brigid then spent two years performing autism research at UCLA prior to returning to the Bay Area for a post-baccalaureate program. Brigid began working for Starwood Equine in early 2014 as a veterinary assistant, gaining invaluable experience both in the field and in the office. Brigid graduated from UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine in 2020, where she focused on equine medicine and volunteered with the veterinary emergency response team. She returned to Starwood Equine after graduation, and has a special interest in equine internal medicine, general care, and dentistry. Brigid is trained and certified through the International Veterinary Chiropractic Association. Outside of work, Brigid enjoys everything outdoors: running, hiking, skiing, and exploring Northern California with her husband and two dogs.
