Services
Our team provides a full range of general practice care, from everyday illness to long term condition management. Expand a section below for details on each service.
-
Our doctors see patients for all medical conditions, including childhood illness, youth sexual health, psychological issues, pregnancy care in the first trimester, acute and chronic conditions, age related problems, and palliative care.
If a visit to the surgery isn't possible, a home visit can sometimes be arranged by phoning us. Home visits may incur a travel cost.
Telephone consultations are also available as an alternative to an in person visit, where appropriate. These are charged at the same rate as a standard consultation.
-
Our nurses are available for advice on diet, weight management, diabetes, smoking cessation, and general health concerns. They work alongside our doctors on chronic disease management, and also provide wart removal and wound care.
We do not offer ear syringing.
-
Immunisation protects your child against infectious disease, and is recommended by both the Ministry of Health and the World Health Organisation. We follow the National Immunisation Schedule, which is regularly updated to ensure New Zealand children receive safe, effective vaccines.
Vaccination is free for eligible children. To be fully protected, your child needs to complete all recommended immunisations. Before each vaccination, a doctor or nurse will check your child is in good health.
-
Prescriptions are generally provided by your doctor during a consultation. Repeat prescriptions without a consultation are given at the doctor's discretion, and patients must be seen at least every 6 months (the oral contraceptive is the only exception).
We aim to process all prescription requests on the day of request, or within 48 hours.
Repeat prescriptions can be requested online through our patient portal.
