About Us

Background - Dr Andrew Kelly
After growing up in the South Island and Dunedin, I trained through Otago Medical School. Subsequently I worked and trained in New Zealand, Ireland, and Australia, returning to NZ as a Specialist Paediatrician in 1999. I’ve had a busy and varied career in Hospital Paediatrics, Neonatal, and Community Medicine by way of Dunedin Hospital, University of Otago, and Southern community clinics. For that period I’ve supervised the training of NZ paediatricians through the RACP training and examination committees.
