Infectious Disease Registrars

Infectious Disease Registrars - hear from one of our own Registrars.

Infectious diseases physicians provide a predominantly hospital-based service, specialising in the various clinical, laboratory and public health aspects of infectious disease medicine and microbiology. Infectious Diseases trainees will be exposed to a wide range of complex clinical presentations and will have exposure to community and public health settings. The specialty of infectious diseases is based on clinical expertise as opposed to the use of more practical procedural or technical skills.

Infectious Diseases Registrar runs in the Auckland region are six months in length, following which you may rotate into a different run. All runs are accredited for RACP Advanced Training in the Auckland region; provision of further runs beyond the initial six month allocation is subject to a competitive process due to limited training capacity. Example run descriptions for the 2019 training year can be viewed on the Auckland Doctors website. For further information on Advanced Training in New Zealand please visit the RACP website.
