MB ChB 2008 Auckland; FRACS (Urol) 2018

Louise returned from the United Kingdom where she completed a fellowship in endourology at Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust and an honorary urology fellowship in spinal injuries at Stoke Mandeville National Spinal Injuries Centre. During this time she also completed laboratory research in the ureteroscopic management of stones with the Nuffield Department of Surgical Sciences University of Oxford and the Oxford Institute of Biomedical Engineering.

Having grown up and attended school in Methven, Mid Canterbury she was then directly accepted to The University of Auckland for undergraduate medical training. Her urological training has taken her to multiple locations across New Zealand from Auckland to Invercargill which is where she met her husband. They have two boys.

She is pleased to have returned home from the UK and be putting to good use the skills she has gained internationally in the treatment of urinary stone disease and management of the urinary tract in those with neurological injuries. In addition she has a specific interest in the investigation and management of bladder dysfunction and continence.

In her spare moments Louise will be spending time at the family farm in Methven or indulging her love of embroidery and snow skiing in the winter and water skiing in summer.

Louise is a urologist at Christchurch Hospital and also works at the Burwood Spinal Unit. She is a trustee of Canterbury Urology Research Trust and a Clinical Senior Lecturer, University of Otago, Christchurch.
