Bio of Dr. Jonathan H. Magid, DVM, MS, DACVIM:

I graduated from the Colorado State University School of Veterinary Medicine in May of 1990. After six years of practice in Utah, I returned to school for residency training in Equine Medicine at University of Illinois from 1996-1999.

As a resident at the University of Illinois, I was a Clinical Instructor in Equine Medicine and a Master’s Degree Candidate. I received advanced training in equine medicine, lameness diagnosis and treatment, surgery, and dentistry. I passed the board exam and became a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine in 1999, and received my Master’s Degree in 2002.

I have been a speaker at national and state meetings on equine physiology. I have studied equine dentistry extensively, both through short courses and working with Dr. Dean Scoggins and Dr. Gordon Baker at the University of Illinois, and I have been an instructor in several dentistry programs for veterinary students and veterinarians.

After completing the residency program, I headed west to Montana, where I practiced veterinary medicine, and worked as a consultant for Antech Diagnostics, a national veterinary diagnostic laboratory. I liked it there a lot, but after six years, I felt like a change, and I moved to Texas in the fall of 2005.

I have five horses of my own. One is an old retired cutting horse I showed a bit (third place for the year in our division in the Utah Cutting Horse Association in 1992). Two are nice saddle horses that I used on the ranch in Montana and have shown in Ranch Horse Versatility, Reined Cowhorse, and team roping competitions. I also have two young horses. One is an American Quarter Horse that I hope to show in cutting, the other is an Arabian that I hope to show in reined cowhorse classes.
