Profile

Gerry was born in Auckland, growing up in Oratia before moving to Kumeū while studying medicine at Auckland University. Following graduation she worked in a wide range of specialties in Waikato Hospital and in hospitals in North East Yorkshire. She completed her specialist  training with the Royal College of GPs UK (RCGP UK) and on returning to New Zealand she completed her Fellowship with the NZ GP College (RNZCGP).

Gerry enjoys all aspects of medicine which is why she chose General Practice. She is particularly interested in women and children's medicine, psychiatric/psychological medicine, older people's health and ENT.

Gerry lives with her Yorkshire husband, two young children and Monty the cat (from Bradford). She enjoys exercising with her family in the Eastern Bays and is a keen gardener and avid reader. She regularly travels to the UK to catch up with family there and loves escaping to the Pacific Islands in the winter when she can.
