We understand how much your practice means to you and your patients; we’ve been there as owners and operators of our own general practices.

By joining Local Health, you’ll remain the face of healthcare in your community and keep the community you have built. Local Health is made up of a network of GPs and practices across the Manawatū region. Our goal is to keep general practices locally owned and provide a sustainable pathway to flexible work or retirement for general practitioners.

Work for us

Joining Local Health gives general practice owners the benefit of:

Administration support – creating more time to see patients, and less time on paperwork.

Competitive salary package.

Ongoing ownership options.

Flexible work arrangements, including sick leave, annual leave, and professional development.

A sustainable path to retirement or reduced hours.

A chance to mentor the next generation of GPs.

Peace of mind that practices will stay locally owned and that patients will have continuity of care.

Your patients will benefit from:

Easy access to radiology, physiotherapy, mental health, and blood collection services.

Team-based care with Nurses, Nurse Practitioners, Doctors, Paramedics, and community health workers to meet diverse needs.

A continuity of care with allocated GPs or NPs, plus additional support while their usual doctor is on leave.

If you're ready to sell and are looking for a great support network, we'd love to chat.
