General Physician Timaru Hospital - South Island, New Zealand Options for Permanent, Full and Part Time General Medicine Department at Timaru Hospital Currently, we are a team of nine internal medicine specialists, with some of the team having an additional sub-specialty qualification or interest, that currently includes Neurology, Respiratory, Gastroenterology, Nephrology & Cardiology.
This allows for each member of the team to practice, or upskill if needed, in an area of their interest.
This we believe adds to job satisfaction, as well as delivering a valuable additional service to the community.
We also have a unique part-time model that enables part-timers to take their time off in blocks of weeks instead of days.
We are keen to expand the range and depth of these services and are looking for people who, in addition to their internal medicine and acute medicine skills, might like to practice or upskill in internal medicine subspecialties like gastroenterology, endocrinology (diabetes), rheumatology, cardiology, haematology, or similar.
Equally, if you have an additional interest in Geriatric Medicine, we have opportunities that may suit.
