Role Due to retirement our Katikati practice is seeking one or more general practitioners to join our friendly team. There is no night or evening on call work. You will also become part of the acute care weekend roster, which operates Saturday and Sunday (mornings only), seeing acute emergencies and doing telehealth. Our doctors work approximately 1:7 weekends.
Practice Our practice is busy, but varied, so there is something for everyone! You will work with a team of great nurses, healthcare assistants and administrative staff. We are Cornerstone accredited and a teaching practice with nursing and medical students and GP registrars. We also support the local ambulance service as a PRIME site, and all doctors and nurses are PRIME trained. Nurses and the duty GP attend callouts together if needed (only required during day opening hours). Pharmacy, radiology, physiotherapy, and laboratory services are located within the same building. You will need to have a sense of humour, be computer literate, and most importantly, be motivated to provide quality healthcare to your patients. In return we will provide a great place to work, competitive pay and delectable morning teas!
Location Katikati is a gorgeous town located within a 30-minute drive north of Tauranga in the stunning Bay of Plenty and a 90-minute drive to Hamilton and Rotorua. With some of the best scenery New Zealand has on offer, a temperate coastal climate, bush, sea/surfing/beaches, and rivers close by, many people from around the country, and the world, consider Katikati THE place to live, work and play. Many of our doctors have come with their families from overseas and have stayed here permanently.
