Lynsey Hayward - Gynaecologist

Lynsey attended medical school at Bristol University and then migrated first to Australia and then New Zealand in 1993. She completed her specialist training between New Zealand and the UK obtaining the MRCOG and FRANZCOG.

For the last 16 years Lynsey has worked as a consultant gynaecologist and obstetrician at Middlemore Hospital specialising in urinary continence and pelvic reconstructive surgery. She has worked in private practice at Auckland Urogynaecology since its opening in 2006.

With a passion for urogynaecology, Lynsey is actively involved in teaching and research in the field. She is currently Treasurer of the Australasian Urogynaecology Society and the Public Relations Chair for the International Urogynaecology Association as well as examining for the RANZCOG specialist examinations. Understanding that visiting a gynaecologist can be a daunting experience, Lynsey aims to provide a friendly, informative and hopefully pleasant experience for her patients whilst providing expert care. As well as urogynaecology, Lynsey is able to see women referred for Colposcopy, general gynaecology problems and for laparoscopic surgery. Her operating lists are at Gillies Hospital, Epsom and Ormiston Hospital in East Auckland.
