New Zealand medical practitioners and nurses records on Ancestry

Ancestry has placed online a new Kiwi collection - New Zealand, Registers of Medical Practitioners and Nurses, 1873, 1882-1933

From the site: 

Acts such as the Medical Practitioners Act of 1869, the Nurses Registration Act of 1901, and the Midwives Registration Act of 1904 required that a register be kept of legally qualified medical practitioners. These registers were then published yearly in the New Zealand Gazette. This database is a collection of those pages from the Gazette for various years. You’ll find names, qualifications, and residences listed for physicians, surgeons, nurses, midwives, and other medical practitioners. 

Access the collection at http://search.ancestry.co.uk/search/db.aspx?dbid=6195
