Dr. Ciara was raised in southwestern Tucson, AZ. She is a double University of Arizona alumni, completing her undergraduate degree in veterinary science in 2018, and then her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 2023. Bear down!

Dr. Ciara has been around horses her whole life. She participated in many junior rodeos and gymkhanas with some success growing up. To this day she still likes to travel around to local team roping jackpots and World Series team roping events. Before going to veterinary school, she worked as a veterinary technician in Tucson for a mobile equine practice. Dr Ciara is very excited to bring her skills, passion and knowledge to Civano Animal Hospital. She looks forward to providing excellent care to not just horses, but also the large and small animals in the southern Arizona community in which she grew up!

She currently has a mini zoo of her own and plans to continue adding to it, including three horses (Charlie, Badger and Mamba), a cat, and a Sulcata tortoise.
