Meet the team

Willis Medical’s dedicated doctors, nurses, and administrative staff work as a team to deliver the highest levels of patient-centred care.

Our team includes familiar faces who have worked at our Willis Street premises for many years, as well as newer staff who we’ve had the pleasure of welcoming more recently.

Our Doctors

**Dr Tim McLeod**
*GP Owner, MBChB, FRNZCGP*
I joined as a partner in 2014 having worked as a general practitioner in Wellington for the previous 10 years. I am interested in all aspects of general practice and find this provides a very stimulating and rewarding career. Through competitive cycling I have developed an interest in nutrition, fitness and wellness which I enjoy sharing with patients where needed.
I am married with two young girls who keep me very busy outside of work.

**Dr Tony Jenks**
*GP Owner, MBChB, PGDipPaed, FRNZCGP*
I am an experienced doctor having worked in hospitals in New Zealand and overseas before training in General Practice. I have enjoyed working as a GP in the Wellington region for the last thirteen years. I completed my medical training at the University of Otago and also hold a Diploma in Paediatrics from the University of Auckland. I have a developing interest in skin cancer medicine and have qualifications from the Skin Cancer College of Australasia.
Outside of work, I enjoy getting outdoors for exercise, and spending time with my family.

**Dr Monika Vieregg**
*GP Owner, MBChB, BSc, BNurs, FRNZCGP*
I’m a parent of an adult daughter and have a small fluffy dog. I worked as a nurse before retraining as a doctor. I have interest and experience in youth health, older adult health, and travel medicine, and I enjoy the huge variety and satisfaction of working in general practice. I believe in working in partnership with patients to achieve their best health while respecting their priorities and values.
In my spare time I like to travel to new and interesting places, go tramping in the NZ wilderness, and I try to keep fit by doing Crossfit.

**Dr Sabine Stanley**
*Associate - General Practitioner, MBChB, Dip.Obst, FRNZCGP*
Originally from Germany, I attended medical school in Köln (Cologne) and arrived in NZ in 1989. I was a House surgeon/Senior House officer in both Nelson and Wellington, and started working from Willis Street in 2007.
In my spare time I am an ardent tramper and lover of the outdoors.

**Dr Michelle Mullin**
*Associate - General Practitioner, MBChB, FRNZCGP*
After graduating from Otago Medical School, I spent a few years travelling overseas and working in a variety of medical specialities until deciding on General Practice. I completed the training programme for this in New Zealand and have been enjoying the diversity and complex nature of general practice since then.
Outside of work, I love spending time with my family in the outdoors doing activities such as skiing and tramping.

**Dr John Littler**
*Associate - General Practitioner, MBBS, MRCGP*
I graduated in 2008 and after initially training in anaesthetics and intensive care I switched to General Practice in 2015 and I’ve never looked back.
I was a GP in Manchester, UK for 5 years before making the move to New Zealand in 2022. I have areas of interest in sports and exercise, men’s health and elderly care including dementia.
Outside of work you will generally find me playing sport, eating food, spending time with friends or travelling the world.

**Dr Roza Brajkovich-Payne**
*Associate - General Practitioner, BSc, MBChB*
I studied medicine at the University of Otago and also have a degree in Neuroscience. Having initially started training in hospital medicine, I decided to move into General Practice as I wanted to know my patients in the context of their lives. I have particularly enjoyed the variety of medicine and working with patients to address their concerns and move forward together to optimise their health and wellbeing.
Outside of work, you’ll find me chasing after my toddler and enjoying Wellington’s best coffee.
