Calum Paltridge
BVSc (Hons) MANZCVS
Calum grew up in the New England region, and his family are all still in the district. He spent many years breeding, training and competing stock horses alongside his family. Calum left the New England to study at the University of Queensland, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Veterinary Science with first class honours in 2013. In 2019 he was admitted as a member of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists in the subject of Equine Practice.
After some time in North Queensland, Calum took a job at Oakey on the Darling Downs and has been a purely equine practitioner since then. He has spent most of his time in Southern Queensland and Victoria, including working in the equine department at the University of Melbourne. Calum’s professional interests include anything to do with performance or race horses, with a special focus on lameness examinations and poor performance. He also enjoys the challenges of reproduction.
