About Us
Our Story
What Drives Us
Hey, I’m Pip Harpur. I hold a PG Certificate in Paediatrics, a Postgraduate Diploma in Palliative Care, a Master of Arts, and I’m currently a PhD candidate. I’ve spent over a decade working in General Practice and Urgent Care, and I’ve seen just how much impact compassion, time and understanding can have when paired with clinical skill.
As a nurse practitioner, I believe we bring the best of nursing and medicine together. We are able to work autonomously on our own, as well as within multidisciplinary teams both in the community and in the hospital sectors. We are able to manage both acute and chronic medical conditions and work in partnership with patients as their main health provider.

Ocean Breeze was born out of the desire to do healthcare differently, blending modern medicine with a personal touch. Whether we talk on the phone, connect virtually, see you in clinic, or visit you at home, you’ll be met with respect, experience and real care. I look forward to working in partnership and supporting both individuals and families right here on the Coast.
