Dr Monirul Islam
I graduated in 1990 from Chittagong Medical College in Bangladesh. After finishing my internship in 1991, I worked in a diabetes Hospital, under 5 Clinic and gathered some experience in Ophthalmology before migrating to New Zealand in 1995.
I started my General Practice career in 1999 at Whitianga. After enjoying my rural general practice for over 4 years, I moved to Auckland in 2003 which is where I became a Fellow of Royal New Zealand College of General Practitioners in 2006. I also ventured into Cosmetic Medicine for 10 years since 2006 side by side my General Practice and had earned the Fellowship of New Zealand Society of Cosmetic Medicine.
I owned my practice in Te Atatu South and served that community for 12 years. I then took over Dr Paul Trotman’s Practice in 2016 at Maungakiekie Clinic. I have a special interest in Skin Cancer and its treatment and enjoy the Dermatoscopy skill and Minor Surgery. I am married to Dr Neela Ahmed, and we have 3 daughters.
Dr Neela Ahmed
I graduated in 1990 from Chittagong Medical College in Bangladesh, which is where I worked and gained extensive knowledge in maternal and child health before moving to New Zealand in 1995.
In 2007 I became a Fellow Royal New Zealand College of General Practitioners and held an honorary academic position as a senior lecturer in General Practice at The University of Auckland.
I worked in General Practice in New Zealand for 23 years, and my passion is to offer care to people in every stage of life, both preventative and curative. I enjoy all aspects of General Practice which includes building long term relationships with patients and their whanau.
In Neela’s spare time, she enjoys reading, writing, and travelling with her family. I am married to Dr Monirul Islam and we have 3 daughters.
Dr Simon Mackereth
I graduated from the University of Auckland in 1987 and worked for several years in a broad range of hospital jobs in N.Z, England and then Uganda before returning to Auckland to take up a Paediatric Registrar role at Middlemore Hospital.
I started in General Practice at the end of 1993 and enjoyed working with children and their whanau in the General Practice setting.
I returned to National Women’s Hospital to obtain a Diploma of Obstetrics and Gynaecology followed by the GP training system leading to Fellowship of the Royal New Zealand College of General Practitioners.
I have extensive experience in all aspects of General Practice/Family Medicine and a passion for helping people. I enjoy working toward the best possible outcome for my patients and seeing people get the most out of life. I also provide Skin Cancer diagnosis and Management, including Minor Surgery
I am married to Lynette and have 2 adult children, Stephen, and Kerry. When I am not at work you will usually find me outdoors (kayak fishing, in my garden, walking or swimming) though I also enjoy reading a good book, or participating in our church community.
Christy Rennison - Registered Nurse/Nurse Prescriber
I have been employed as a registered nurse for Dr Simon Mackereth. Originally from Vietnam I moved to New Zealand and embarked on my nursing journey in New Zealand in 2004, where I pursued my nursing training at Auckland University of Technology (AUT). With two decades of nursing experience under my belt, I have dedicated myself to improving patient outcomes.
I am currently a nurse prescriber but am actively working towards achieving my goal of becoming a nurse practitioner, aiming to broaden my scope of practice and enhance my ability to deliver comprehensive care to patients.
Beyond my professional pursuits, I find happiness in the great outdoors, often indulging in camping trips with my husband David and daughter Chloe. These excursions not only provide moments of relaxation and bonding but also serve as a source of rejuvenation.
