Dunedin and Southland Hospitals

ACHD Clinics are run at both Dunedin and Southland Hospitals. All the cardiologists see ACHD patients, but the main contact person is Dr James Pemberton (that’s James in the picture below).

There are three specialist clinics from the Auckland team every year (Dr Clare O’Donnell to Dunedin and Dr Ivor Gerber to Invercargill).

Most investigations such as echocardiograms, exercise tests, CT scans and some MRI scans and angiograms can be performed at either Dunedin or Southland Hospital. Some specialised cardiac catheters and cardiac MRI scans will be done in Christchurch or Auckland.
