Our team of radiation oncologists is led by Dr Leanne Tyrie, who has strong connections with both the Bay of Plenty and Waikato regions, having been born in Opōtiki and educated in Ngāruawahia. Dr Tyrie received her medical degree from the University of Otago and completed her specialty training at Waikato Hospital before undertaking post graduate experience at Mount Vernon Hospital in London. She held a radiation oncology consultant position between 1996 and 2014 at Waikato Hospital and was the Director of Training at this centre for a number of years. Dr Tyrie has had extensive leadership experience including Clinical Unit Lead and Director of Radiation Oncology, Waikato Regional Cancer Centre and more latterly Clinical Director and Chief Operating Officer of the Kathleen Kilgour Centre, a role which she has had since the inception of the centre. Leanne has been a member of multiple national advisory committees during her career and remains a current member of the New Zealand National Radiation Oncology Advisory Group.

Dr Tyrie has extensive clinical experience in the treatment of both localised and metastatic prostate cancer, including the use of high dose rate brachytherapy and stereotactic radiotherapy. She has a particular interest in quality of life issues as they pertain to the treatment of prostate cancer. She particularly enjoys assisting men and their families negotiate the various treatment options that are available to treat this disease. Dr Tyrie has been actively involved in the national implementation of new technologies used to treat prostate cancer, and has an ongoing commitment to research into this tumour site.

Passionate about the management of genitourinary cancer, and in particular prostate cancer, Leanne is excited to bring this extensive experience to the people of the Bay of Plenty.
