Dr Charles Williams has cared for generations of families over many years and he has now made the decision to retire.

Dr Williams began his medical journey at the University of Otago, graduating with a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBChB) in 1976. He entered general practice in December 1977, embarking on what would become a lifelong commitment to caring for families across generations. In 1999, he was awarded Fellowship of the Royal New Zealand College of General Practitioners (FRNZCGP), recognising his experience, professionalism, and significant contribution to primary care.

Throughout his career, Dr Williams has been more than a doctor—he has been a trusted advisor, a steady presence, and a familiar face to countless patients and their whānau. His ability to build lasting relationships and provide thoughtful, patient-centred care has made a meaningful difference in the lives of so many.

As a long-standing owner of Vincent Street Family Doctors, Dr Williams has also played a vital role in shaping the practice and ensuring high-quality care in Howick alongside fellow GP Dr Franklin Fung. Dr Williams commitment has helped create a strong foundation that will continue into the future.
