We are so proud as a team to have played a role in getting Always a Runner back to health and being a part of her remarkable story. She battled her illness like the champion that she was in the Kentucky Oaks on the first Friday in May. Congratulations to her owners, Mr. Douglas Scharbauer and Three Chimneys Farm. Also congratulations and kudos to trainer Chad Brown and his team for a truly exceptional training job getting her ready for prime time after only two lifetime starts.🌸🌸🌸

Attacking the leaders with a relentless wide bid on the outside in the stretch, Always a Runner remained unbeaten in three starts by wearing down Meaning to win the $1.5 million Kentucky Oaks (G1) at Churchill Downs.

Please welcome Drs. Debbie Kaufman and Radhika Sharma, the two newest members of our growing field service team!

Dr. Kaufman grew up in Connecticut where she started to ride and love all things horses at the age of four. During her riding career, she competed through the 1.40m Jr/AO jumpers with her heart horse Arthur. Debbie completed her undergraduate degree at the University of Connecticut majoring in business, continuing on to achieve her MBA at Duke University. After spending 10 years managing human hospitals and surgery centers, she decided to make a major life pivot to follow her dreams and pursue a second career in veterinary medicine. She attended Ross University where she obtained her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine, with her clinical year training at NC State University. Following graduation, Debbie completed a rotating internship at The Piedmont Equine Practice in Virginia focusing on ambulatory sports medicine. Her professional interests include emergency care, sports medicine, and general practice. Outside of work, Dr. Kaufman enjoys fox hunting, scuba diving, reading, and spending time with her rescued "Coconut Terrier", Wendy, who she brought home from St. Kitts.

Dr. Sharma grew up in Columbus, Ohio. In 2016, she graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science from Baldwin Wallace University where she majored in Biology and Chemistry. Dr. Sharma’s commitment to the welfare of the horse began when she started riding at a young age. She spent her teenage years competing in the Hunters and working as a groom on the AA circuit. Throughout her undergraduate degree she volunteered with recently retired thoroughbred racehorses to transition them to their second careers. In 2024, she graduated from Tufts Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine where she received the Large Animal Ultrasound Award and the ACVS Foundation Large Animal Student Surgery Proficiency Award. She then completed a rotating internship here at Mid-Atlantic and she is thrilled to stay on as a member of the field service team! Dr. Sharma's primary interests include diagnostic imaging, sports medicine and internal medicine.

Those of us in the business of caring for and treating horses all know how challenging it can be. We don't always get the desired outcomes, so we have to celebrate and savor the victories. Stricken with a disease that is often fatal, Bond's case required a lot of hard work and dedication by our staff. Kudos to our team! We are grateful to Martha Stewart for the opportunity to care for him and nurse him back to health. One of the most regal of breeds, he fought until he was able to regain his strength, stand and hold his head high again.
