Brittany Ann O’Neil, DVM

Dr. Brittany O’Neil was born and raised in Massachusetts where she was surrounded by all different kinds of animals from a young age. She was introduced to horses in grade school and worked and rode at various barns throughout the years in the New England area. Receiving her undergraduate degree in Biology at the University of Vermont, Brittany developed an appreciation for the countryside and the hard work and dedication that go into producing locally grown food. It was here where she also developed a passion for dairy cows during a cooperative program called CREAM. On top of being a full time college student, she milked cows and made management decisions for the herd of Holsteins and Jerseys. In her free time, Brittany enjoyed hiking the green mountains of Vermont, snowboarding, and showing cows at the local county fair during the summer. After graduation, Brittany moved to Canada to pursue her preschool dream of becoming a veterinarian. She attended the Ontario Veterinary College, located in Guelph, Ontario. During her time there, she was an active member in both the equine and dairy club, and enriched her education in areas such as equine lameness, farrier work, and reproduction. She was also part of the first ECG study done on thoroughbreds; monitoring heart rates and patterns during actual races run at Woodbine Race Track. After graduation, Brittany moved back to New England and joined the Deerfield family in June 2014. She strives to provide the most up-to-date veterinary care and is excited to develop lasting relationships with the Deerfield community! (Source)
