The Combat Doctor with Dan Pronk

World Extreme Medicine Podcast

Dr Dan Pronk served on over 100 combat missions in Afghanistan as a frontline special forces combat doctor, where the casualties he treated were his fellow SAS soldiers and commandos, local civilians and even the enemy.

The thrill of adventure and the challenges of battlefield medicine brought out the very best in Dan; he discovered a sense of purpose in pushing his medical skills and courage to the limits. But there was a cost.

Dan Pronk has written his memoirs 'The Combat Doctor' and chatted to Eoin about the messages in the book and the powerful learning in the line of duty. Dan currently works as a Senior Medical Officer in the Emergency Department in a regional hospital and serves as the medical director for Techmed Australia.
