Biography

Dr Alan Bell completed his degree in Veterinary Science in 1979 and after completing his initial appointments in mixed practice and large animal practice in rural New South Wales, Alan quickly moved into Equine practice – his true passion. Alan moved to Sydney to open his own practice in the highly competitive Sydney racing industry. In 1986 at the age of 30, Alan purchased Parnell from the retiring owner Dr Richard Boon.  Over the next 20 years Alan continued to work as an Equine Veterinarian as well as becoming a well-known horse breeder, racehorse owner and syndicator and ultimately a championship winning thoroughbred horse trainer in Sydney. In 2005 Alan decided he wanted to grow Parnell to be a global player in the veterinary market and ultimately make Parnell an accredited FDA facility which became a reality in 2013. Alan is Chairman of the Board and continues to work closely with both the CEO and CFO
