Dr Brad Sheridan grew up in a small country town and has an appreciation and passion for healthcare equity in rural and regional Australia. His research interests include trauma anaesthesia, resuscitation in trauma, and prehospital and retrieval medicine.
Dr Sheridan lived, studied, and later worked in Japan, first as a Monbukagakusho (MEXT) scholar and then as a medical editor and translator. He studied medicine at UNSW and spent his final year as a medical student in Wagga Wagga, rekindling his interest in rural and regional healthcare.
He pursued his junior doctoring years at Wagga Wagga Base Hospital, where he also began specialist training in anaesthesia before completing anaesthesia training and a general fellowship at Royal North Shore Hospital.

Training at a Major Trauma Service, State Trauma Burns Unit and Trauma Spinal Injury Unit piqued his interest in trauma care, and a rotation to CareFlight/Sydney HEMS sparked an interest in prehospital and retrieval medicine.

Following specialist qualification as an Anaesthetist, he developed these interests further with a fellowship in prehospital medicine in the UK and an MSc in Trauma Sciences from Queen Mary University London. He also holds qualifications in Immediate Medical Care, Aeromedical Retrieval and Clinical Ultrasound.
