Dr Kiyomi Kitagawa

Deputy Chair

Being on the Pinnacle Incorporated executive committee is a great opportunity to guide positive change, innovative thinking, improve primary care and the role Pinnacle plays within the system.

I enjoy representing Taranaki at the governance level at Pinnacle and strengthening the partnership between primary care in Taranaki and Pinnacle. In addition to the Pin Inc exec committee I am a member of the Carefirst Medical Centre board of directors.

I feel I contribute gender, cultural and regional diversity to the Pinnacle board. I bring with me a strong interest in equity, sustainability of primary care, community health and environmental sustainability. I have a positive, well considered, solution-based approach to decisions and challenges.
