You will become a member of a small team of five O & G specialists based in Whakatāne, with whom you will share the on call and elective workload. You should therefore be a good team player with a flexible work ethic. Knowledge of the New Zealand healthcare system will be an advantage.
We serve a large catchment area within the Eastern Bay of Plenty. Our clients are from a diverse background, with the majority being Māori.

We are New Zealand's sunshine capital, and our local Ohōpe Beach is New Zealand's most loved beach.
