Celebrating 30 Years of Mobile Medical

Since 1995, Mobile Medical has revolutionised how New Zealanders access kidney stone treatment. This year, we proudly mark three decades of delivering expert urological care to communities across Aotearoa.

It all began with a bold idea. Urologists Dr Stu Gowland and Dr Jon Cadwallader identified a major barrier in kidney stone treatment: lithotripsy - a non-invasive procedure using focused shockwaves to break up stones required costly, specialised equipment. For many regions, investing in a standalone machine was simply not feasible.

Their solution was visionary: a mobile lithotripsy unit that could travel the country, bringing advanced care directly to patients.
