Dr. Steve O’Grady was a professional farrier for ten years prior to obtaining his degree in Veterinary medicine. He learned the farrier trade through a formal apprenticeship under “Hall of Fame” farrier, Joseph M. Pierce, of West Chester PA. After graduating from veterinary school, Dr. O’Grady did an internship in Capetown South Africa and then a second internship with Dr. Dan Flynn at Georgetown Equine Hospital in Charlottesville VA.  He has since combined his skills as a veterinarian and as a farrier to better understand and treat hoof problems. He has published numerous articles in both the veterinary and farrier literature and he has lectured extensively both in the US and overseas. In 2003, he was inducted into the International Equine Veterinarians Hall of Fame.

Martina Roebuck has been associated with Dr. O’Grady for the past thirteen years. She doubles as both the office manager and a experienced veterinary assistant. Martina spends much of her spare time taking care of her animals – 6 dogs, 6 cats, 3 horses, 1 cockatoo, 1 ferret and 5 ducks.
