Veterinarian Overview
Dr. McBride has spent the majority of his career working on racehorses at different tracks up and down the eastern United States and has extensive experience evaluating equine soundness and fitness. In 2000, after working with Mitch Wapner, DVM in Pennsylanvia for seven years, he started his own practice, Eastern Thoroughbred Racing Associates. (For anyone who has not had the privilege of going backside at the track, you may not realize that racehorses are checked by their vet regularly, many of them daily. Good track vets are known to have some of the best hands and eyes in the industry.) I am extremely experienced at walking the fine line between minimizing downtime during healing, and ensuring that the equine athlete returns to competition healed well enough to compete at their previous level and healed strong enough to minimize reinjury, said McBride.
