Owner
Goshen Ridge Veterinary Services
Tillsonburg, ON, Canada
Dr. Sue Burlatschenko graduated with a BSc from the University of Guelph and a DVM from the Ontario Veterinary College. She worked in a mixed practice for 3 years, spent the next three with the Ontario Government working on a pork industry initiative program and then returned to private practice where she began and still has her solo swine consultancy. She obtained her Diplomate status in Swine Health and Production in 2005 and a Master of Public Health in December 2013. Part of Sue’s practice involves the provision of expert witness services. She was the first veterinarian in Canada to diagnose Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea, then considered a foreign animal disease.
Dr. Burlatschenko also teaches part time at the Ridgetown College of Agriculture. Although practice keeps her busy in Ontario, she has travelled extensively “doing pig things” – to countries including China, South Africa, Malaysia, Philippines, Jamaica, and Estonia, to name a few. She is involved in a smallholder pig project in Lesotho in Africa with Bracelet of Hope, an HIV/AIDS charity based out of Guelph, Ontario.
Dr. Burlatschenko resides on a farm outside of Tillsonburg, Ontario with an assortment of pets and enjoys cooking in her kitchen for the kids when they come home (when she isn’t photographing and travelling!).
