Dr Tarek Saleh

Currently I am the Unit Lead Gynaecological endoscopy (Keyhole surgery) at Waikato Hospital with special interest in endometriosis, and pelvic floor surgery.

I immigrated to New Zealand in 2004 when I started working as a junior doctor at Waikato Hospital in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology. I trained in different New Zealand Hospitals with Waikato being my base training centre and I qualified as a specialist Obstetrician and Gynaecologist in 2015 (FRANZCOG).

After completing 2 years of intensive post graduate fellowship training in gynaecological endoscopy and pelvic floor surgery (AGES), I became specialised in the surgical and medical management of women with endometriosis and pelvic organ prolapse/urinary incontinence.

I have regular clinics in the rooms at the Southbloc Building on 19 Knox Street, at the Tui medical Rototuna branch on the corner of Thomas Road and Horsham Downs Road, as well as at the Leamington Medical Centre Cambridge and further regular Gynaecology clinics at Waikato Hospital.

Regular operating sessions are being held at Anglesea, and Braemar Private Hospital and further in Waikato Hospital.
