General Practitioner

Contract:
Permanent
Start date:
As soon as possible

In the middle of it all!

This newly amalgamated health service requires a General Practitioner to join their team. Your colleagues will consist of a clinical services manager, one other GP, a nurse and administration staff. The practice would consider any length of placement with flexibility on hours, salary, accommodation and transport.

If you’ve been described as a thrill seeker, you don’t have to look far for ways to fulfil this - Mokai Gravity Canyon boasts the world’s most extreme flying fox with speeds of up to 160kph and the world’s highest tandem swing with a 50m freefall! To create the ultimate combination, add an 80m BUNGY jump! For something on water, try the River Valley Rafting which caters for all abilities and is sure to leave a smile on your face. If you’d like all four hooves firmly on the ground, try the trail horse riding which offers beautiful scenery of the countryside.

Taihape would suit a GP who loves the outdoors as it sits near three national parks. This makes it well situated for hiking adventures and is only an hour from the ski fields on Mt Ruapehu. You will be lucky enough to have the famous Lake Taupo only an hour’s drive away where you can enjoy the natural hot springs all day. Taihape holds a unique wellington boot (gumboot) throwing competition which is a fun festival for all the family. Try your best to beat the current world record, enjoy the live music, craft stalls, home brew competitions and magicians!

With a kindergarten and primary school, it also has the new secondary school - Taihape Area School which, at the end of 2011, will be the most technically advanced school in New Zealand.

Put those wellington boots on and call us today!
