Our doctors and their hours

Dr Annie Chen-Green
MBChB Dip Obs FRNZCGP

Hi, I am Annie.

I have always wanted to be a doctor; I consider working with patients to be a real privilege. To be part of your support network and help you on your journey and make a difference is a top priority.

I am married with children undergoing university education. Family health is an important priority for me.

I graduated from Otago medical school, worked initially in Dunedin Public hospital, then Balclutha Hospital, followed by 10 years as a GP before moving to Christchurch where I locumed for 3 years before setting up Belfast North MEDIQUAL™ Doctors 10 years ago. This is now home for good.

We provide a team approach to your health care. I am so glad I'm working with other keen and dedicated staff at MEDIQUAL™ who, like me, have chosen to be in this profession because this is our passion. This journey is so much easier because the load is shared. The MEDIQUAL™ team will do their best to ensure you get the best care. And after hours you can contact After Hours untill we open up again.

Having consulted in several underprivileged countries, I really appreciate the preciousness of life and the uniqueness of who you are.

Dr Nick Jacob
MBChB Dip Obst

Hi Nick here! I am really pleased to be part of the MEDIQUAL™ team in Belfast. I am married with 2 young children. I know just how precious my family are to me, so it is a privilege to get to know you and to care for you and your family.

It seems like a long time ago that I trained in Otago Medical School. I have travelled a fair bit and worked both in NZ and across the ditch; both in hospital and GP; and in city and rural settings. After initially being interested in emergency medicine and then paediatrics, I have seen the best and the worst case scenarios. I am pretty clear that I want to work in a place where you will have the best chance to get the best case scenario.

Those who work with me know that I am a team player, down to earth, and believe that laughter is the best medicine.

At MEDIQUAL™ we all work hard to make sure you get the best package of care 7 days a week. I look forward to meeting you at Belfast North MEDIQUAL™ Doctors.

Dr Gillian Brown

Hi I'm Gillian. I'm married to Michael and we moved back to Christchurch from Wellington early in 2010. I had moved here as a child and did my training in Dunedin and then at Christchurch Clinical School. We have two children, one at University in Wellington and one with us here at high school.

I have been a GP since 1983 - sometimes working part time around my family and more recently working full time for 10 years in Wellington. I am enjoying settling into Belfast North MEDIQUAL™ and love the way they work together as such a supportive team. For me one of the most enjoyable things about General Practice is having the chance to get to know you and your family. I look forward to meeting you and working with you.
