Home > About Us
It was one of the first “purpose built” medical centres in Christchurch.
The current managing directors are Doctors: Mark Cohen, Andy Osborne, Chloe Dearlove & Vinny Karunasekera.
The founding shareholders were Doctors: John Musgrove, Ross Moon, David Gray. Dr Jonathan Pascoe joined the team some years later. Since then our staff have changed, the building has been slightly modified and the range of services we offer has expanded. We have always aimed to provide excellent care to our patients and their families in a friendly and professional manner. This is still our aim.
In June 2022 we moved into our new purpose built facility which allows us to deliver move services in a modern environment.
