About the Team/Service/Location

The post involves an equal share of the on-call roster, covering both Obstetrics and Gynaecology. The current average call frequency in Tauranga is 1:10 with split weekends. Outpatient/Daytime responsibilities include Antenatal clinics, Gynaecology and colposcopy clinics and Theatre when not on call.
