(Richard), a learned English physician, born in Staffordshire about the year 1513. He studied physic in Brazen-Nose college Oxford; and was examined, admitted unto, and made censor of the college of physicians at London, all in one day. Six weeks after he was chosen one of the elects; and in the year 1579, was made president of that college. Mr Wood tells us, that he wrote several pieces in his profession; but he does not tell us what they were, only that he translated a book on the art of surgery, written by one Horatio-More, a Florentine physician. We learn from Camden, that Caldwall founded a chirurgical lecture in the college of physicians, and endowed it with a handsome salary. He died in 1585.
