When he finally graduated from Dundee in 2014 he had spent just enough of the intervening years not having fun in the hills to actually qualify as a Doctor. Currently a Captain in Royal Army Medical Corps, he now holds diplomas in Leadership, the Management of Conflict and Catastrophe and Immediate Medical Care. He has climbed and led expeditions on 5 continents and spent most of the past few years deployed on operational tours and military exercises around the world. At home in Pitlochry, Dave can be found responding for BASICS, playing ‘hide and seek’ with the rescue team or running (slowly) around the hills looking for things to climb.
