Dr. Pat Garrod
Born in 1964 and qualifying as a doctor in 1988, Pat Garrod was never your typical GP. An inveterate traveller, uneasy with routine, he has worked in Australia, Saudi Arabia and Zimbabwe. Over the past fifteen years, despite a serious motorcycle accident in his early twenties, he has ridden four times across Africa and circumnavigated the globe, always two-up. Other passions include cycling, windsurfing and observing the natural world. He lives with his wife in Dorset, in a 270 year-old sea captain’s cottage. They both still practise medicine.
