Once described as the veterinarian with the “gray truck, white shirt, and black dog,” Dr. Richard McComick grew up in the Gettysburg area of Pennsylvania and developed his love for horses taking care of them at the family farm and showing jumpers. He graduated from the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine in 1976 (with a Veterinariae Medicinae Doctoris degree hence his title of VMD). After working in a mixed practice in Maryland for a year, he headed west and purchased a veterinary practice in Mill Valley, CA where he worked for five years. After selling that practice in 1982, he came to Valley Animal Hospital while it was still in Morgan Hill and ultimately purchased it from Eugene Carroll, DVM in 1984.While most of his time in equine practice has been spent in lameness and reproduction, he also has an interest in performance horse medicine. He can sometimes be seen riding one of his horses on the local trails at Mt. Madonna with his wife Dr. Lori Kayashima, in his woodshop building furniture, or duck hunting with his Labrador, Eugene the Jeep (he is still waiting patiently for Z to figure out how to swim).
