Dr Juber Hafiji

Specialist Dermatologist and Mohs Surgeon
MB ChB, FRACP, FRCP(UK), FACMS, FNZDSI

I was born in Yorkshire (UK) and completed my Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery degree at the University of Leicester Medical School (UK). After completing 3 years of general medicine, I obtained membership of the Royal College of Physicians (London, UK).

I completed my Dermatology training at Cambridge University (UK) following which I completed my advanced surgical training with the American College of Mohs Surgery. I am a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Physicians and Member of the New Zealand Dermatological Society. I am passionate in what I do and aim to deliver good outcomes for my patients. I aim to treat my patients how I would like myself or my family to be treated.

I relocated to Hawke’s Bay with my wife and 3 children and we have never looked back. Moving to the bay was one of the best decisions I have made.
