They have a hard job keeping doctors in the far north. Very rural but lovely work life balance.

The GPS and specialists in our area of the Hokianga appear to be committed to our community. They are really lovely people, we value them greatly. Money is not everything. The lifestyle the Far North has to offer, is amazing, it is so important when one is working hard, to have a good lifestyle balance. We have medical professionals from a good range of countries. I hope they see the value in the lifestyle Northland has to offer, and stay.

Interesting. I only need to convince the lady (also a doctor) to start packing :)
