Stephanie Hibbits
DVM, DACVS
Primary Clinic: Salinas
Stephanie was born and raised on her family’s cattle ranch in the foothills outside of Yosemite. She grew up riding ranch horses, doing some barrel racing, and team penning with her family. Growing up around animals, Stephanie decided she wanted to be a veterinarian at a young age, even after watching a veterinarian do a C-section on one of her dad’s cows when she was only 5-years old.
Board certified in Veterinary Surgery, Stephanie’s professional interests are lameness, soft tissue and orthopedic surgery, as well as emergency/critical care medicine and surgery.
When not working, Steph can be found enjoying outdoor sports, such as snow and water skiing, cycling, and hiking with her husband Gregg and son Ronan, as well as being a sports mom to Ronan’s many athletic endeavors.
