Gareth moved to Australia from the UK in 2015, having completed a Doctor of Medicine (Research) degree into Atrial Fibrillation at Imperial College London, ranked one of the top ten universities in the world. He completed specialist Cardiology and Electrophysiology training at Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital, at the time the largest single site cardiovascular centre in Europe.
