Andrea Whiston

Cardiac Nurse

Born and bred here in the South, Andrea grew up in Dunedin and later Central Otago, a place that she still enjoys to visit regularly.

After training at Otago University, Andrea worked in areas throughout both New Zealand and Australia before settling in London for many years where she worked within the UK NHS hospitals.

She enjoyed her time working with patients in both the Coronary Care Units and in Cardiac Rehabilitation while there.

Andrea has always enjoyed the variety and scope offered within her nursing career, and the many different areas of the profession that have led her specifically to Cardiology.

“One of my favourite parts of my job is supporting patients to feel confident in managing their health issues, and ensuring they are well informed.”
