Sam undertook his basic medical training at Otago Medical School, then pursued a career in Laparoscopic Gynaecological surgery in Wellington where he trained under a foremost laparoscopic surgeon. He is the only gynaecologist in Tauranga who has completed an Advance Training Module in Laparoscopic and Hysteroscopic surgery and has been certified by the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists for doing so.
He is able to provide for the wahine of Tauranga a laparoscopic approach to hysterectomy, a technique shown to be vastly superior to what are now considered outdated techniques. Furthermore, he is able to provide a fully comprehensive approach to heavy menstrual bleeding that can be tailored to a patient’s exact requirements. He can offer all options, from endometrial resection to myomectomy to hysterectomy.
Sam also works in General Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Tauranga Public Hospital and as a Fertility Specialist at Fertility Associates so is ideally positioned for integrated care for patients traversing these aspects of the health sector.
