Our Team

Dr Nick Dalkie
General
Kia ora, I am a New Zealand raised and trained Gastroenterologist, also having completed the majority of junior training at Waikato Hospital. After the completion of my specialty training in gastroenterology, I undertook further training in interventional endoscopy at the Austin Hospital in Melbourne, with a focus on hepato-pancreatico-biliary disorders and interventions. I have now returned to the Waikato to join the team and further bolster the amazing gastroenterology department, and in particular interventional endoscopy service here and the wider region. I am passionate about providing high quality diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy and look forward to bringing my skills and knowledge home.
