Jenny qualified as a Medical Radiation Technologist in 1968 and two years later became the Charge Radiographer for Drs Urquhart and Moore’s private practice.  Since that time Jenny has spent most of her career working in private radiology practice and brings a wealth of experience to the position of Charge Radiographer.  Jenny is responsible for ensuring that images of the best quality are provided by Palmerston North X-ray, and that each patient receives the utmost care and respect.

Advances in technology provide plenty of exciting challenges and, as part of the Sonic Healthcare Group, the Practice has expanded to include hi-technology imaging.  We are committed to Continuing Professional Development and provide our Technologists with opportunities to increase their knowledge and skill.

Jenny is married with one son who lives with his wife and family in Dubai.  For therapy and relaxation, Jenny gardens, plays occasional golf and walks the dog on the beach.  She has a passion for second-hand book stores and can spend hours in them.  Her goal is to change occasional golf to regular golf.
