Our Adult Congenital Heart Disease (ACHD) service is a part of Te Toka Tumai and is based at Auckland City Hospital, which is a 700-bed university teaching hospital. The Paediatric & Congenital Cardiac Service (PCCS) is the national provider for Paediatric and Adult Congenital Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery in New Zealand, providing services to the people of Auckland as well as national services for ACHD surgical and complex ACHD medical patients.

Auckland City Hospital is the largest in New Zealand and is based in the heart of Auckland City. The city is set in a pristine marine-based environment with a temperate climate and has a population of 1.3 million. It has a vibrant mixture of lifestyles and cultures and offers easy access to stunning and diverse scenery and a wonderful range of outdoor pursuits. With its beautiful countryside and dynamic metropolitan centres, New Zealand offers a lifestyle suitable for all.

To work as a Cardiologist (Senior Medical Officer) in New Zealand, you must become registered to practice with the Medical Council of New Zealand. Practitioners need to meet competency standards and hold Annual Practising Certificates (APCs) to work safely and effectively.
