Dr Rachael Bruce

Dr Rachael Bruce completed her medical training in Scotland in 2017 before moving to Aotearoa New Zealand in 2021, which she now proudly calls home. She began working in general practice in early 2025 and enjoys the variety and continuity of care that general practice provides.

Since graduating, Dr Bruce has spent eight years working across a wide range of healthcare settings, including major tertiary hospitals and smaller rural health centres in both the United Kingdom and New Zealand. During this time, she also completed further qualifications in global health and tropical medicine.

Dr Bruce values building long-term relationships with patients and their families and enjoys supporting people to manage their health across all stages of life. She has particular interests in older persons’ health and the management of chronic medical conditions, including heart and lung disease.

Outside of the clinic, Dr Bruce enjoys spending time in nature, whether heading off on outdoor adventures or relaxing in the garden.
