Thinking about working in Obstetrics & Gynaecology in New Zealand? Here are some of the questions we’re often asked.

Do I need to be registered with the Medical Council of New Zealand to work in O&G?

Yes. To practise medicine in New Zealand, you’ll need to be registered with the Medical Council of New Zealand (MCNZ) and hold an appropriate practising certificate. Your registration pathway will depend on your qualifications, specialist training and experience.

I’m an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist trained overseas. Can I work in New Zealand?

Overseas-trained O&G specialists may be eligible to work in New Zealand. The appropriate registration pathway will depend on where you trained, your qualifications and your experience. NZDr can help you understand the process relevant to your circumstances.

What areas of Obstetrics & Gynaecology does NZDr recruit for?

NZDr recruits across Obstetrics & Gynaecology, including Gynaecological Oncology, Hysteroscopic Surgery, Maternal-Foetal Medicine, Obstetric & Gynaecological Ultrasound, Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility, and Urogynaecology. Opportunities vary depending on current demand and the requirements of individual services.

Can NZDr help with Medical Council registration and immigration?

Yes. If you're moving to New Zealand and need a visa our own in-house licensed immigration advisor will help navigate the process for you and your family.

What can I expect to earn working in Obstetrics & Gynaecology in New Zealand?

Remuneration varies depending on your experience, seniority, employer, location and employment arrangement. NZDr can talk you through the remuneration and conditions associated with individual opportunities.

What is it like working in O&G in New Zealand?

Your experience will depend on the hospital, service and location. Working in a larger tertiary centre can look quite different from working within a regional service, both professionally and in terms of lifestyle. NZDr can help you understand the role, workplace and community surrounding each opportunity.
