Dr Lee-Chen Gan
I was born and raised in Malaysia. After completed a medical degree in Taiwan, I immigrated to New Zealand in 2007. Here, I gained a Postgraduate Diploma of Child Health in 2010 and GP fellowship in 2014. I perform minor surgeries. I am able to do ingrown toenail, simple skin lesion excision and steroid injections (shoulder, knee, carpal tunnel, trigger finger etc). I speak fluent English and Chinese. I understand most Taiwanese, Cantonese but am not able to speak them. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, playing tennis and violin. I perform steroid injections for non-ACC conditions. An initial consultation is required before a procedure can be scheduled. Patients with ACC conditions will be referred to specialist interventional radiologists.
Dr Stephan Fraize
I completed my medical degree in France in 2003. For the past 20 years, I've mainly worked in rural general practices in France, but I also spent 1 year working in dispensaries in the Amazon rainforest and overwintered as the head doctor in the 'Concordia' station on the Antarctic plateau. I love the diversity of general practice, whether it's chronic care management, minor surgery, gynaecology or paediatrics. I moved to New Zealand in early 2025 with my husband and our daughter. In my spare time, I enjoy reading and outdoor activities. I speak English and French.
Nurse Anna Wang
My employment at AFMC started in July 2014 and I am really enjoying working with my kind, funny dedicated colleagues. I feel lucky to be part of this wonderful team.
I love travelling, and am an enthusiastic foodie. I'm enjoying my New Zealand experiences - particularly surf school at Piha, and I recently learnt to SCUBA dive.
Nurse Alison Payne
I emigrated from the UK in 2013. I have over 25 years experience of paediatric nursing both in hospital and in the community setting. I have also worked ad a Public Health nurse and was instrumental in commencing an opportunistic vaccination program within the local hospital. I enjoy the diversity of my role as a Practice Nurse and am particularly interested in paediatrics, emergency medicine and vaccination.
