Carl Alois Philipp Garrè (12 December 1857, Ragaz – 6 March 1928) was a Swiss surgeon. He proved that Staphylococcus aureus causes carbuncles and boils by experimenting on himself and had one condition named after himself, Garre's sclerosing osteomyelitis (sclerosing osteitis – form of chronic osteomyelitis with proliferative periostitis). He was a student of Robert Koch and Theodor Kocher.
