Te Pūriri o Te Ora is our regional cancer and blood service, providing cancer care to people in Auckland and Northland, as well as specialist national services.
We’re a passionate and incredibly committed team of specialist doctors, nurses, radiation therapists, pharmacists, medical physicists, psychologists, clerical staff and social workers.
We understand the enormous impact cancer has on peoples' lives and strive to provide the utmost support for our patients and their whānau during this difficult time and ensure that our patients and their whānau get the best care with the best possible outcome.
The Pūriri is the strong female hard wood tree of the forest that provides protection for us all. Her care is found in the nectar for the tūī, berries for the kererū, leaves for shelter and rongoā for the people. The name Te Pūriri o Te Ora speaks to our commitment to manaaki and serve all who call upon us for cancer care.
