About Us
Kia Ora,
Serving an enrolled population of over 14000, we have 12 GPs working full and part-time, 19 practice nurses (including five Community Nurse Prescribers), five health care assistants, one health improvement practitioner, a health coach, 14 admin/receptionists, and a practice management team. From time-to-time, our permanent staff are assisted by Locums working either in practice or by telephone consult.
We provide a full range of primary care services including a limited number of same day appointments for enrolled patients with clinically urgent needs.
We manage such needs through our triage service, which includes a drive through clinic for those with infectious symptoms including, cough, fever and rash. This is an appointment-based, rather than walk-in service. However, we see patients according to clinical urgency and waiting times will reflect this.
In addition, we offer free consults for those with high needs through a weekly GP Hauora Clinic and a Nurse Led offsite Outreach Clinic.
We aim to provide the highest quality health care for all, in an open and welcoming atmosphere where practice members work as a team and staff and patients feel valued and culturally safe.
We recognize that avoidable unfair and unjust differences in health outcomes are experienced by individuals due to attitudes towards perceived personal characteristics including but not limited to: age, colour, disability, education, employment status, ethical belief, ethnic or national origins, family status, gender identity, language, marital status, mental health or addiction status, past-offending, political opinion, race, religious or spiritual belief, sexual orientation and socio-economic circumstance.
We commit to achieving equitable outcomes for those affected by such attitudes and:
- recognise the status of Māori as tangata whenua of Aotearoa New Zealand and our obligations and responsibilities under Te Tiriti o Waitangi (the Treaty of Waitangi)
- challenge ourselves to identify and overcome implicit bias.
Contact reception to arrange a consultation and let us know if you require any special assistance. You may for instance have difficulty getting to or paying for your appointment or need the services of a translator or chaperone during your appointment. We are solutions focused and happy to help.

Testimonials
"Practicing proper hand hygiene is the first measure that must be aggressively pursued. Hands must be rubbed for at least 15 seconds. Hand sanitizers containing minimum 60 percent alcohol should be used as frequently as much possible."

"The radiology department of the hospital boasts of American Board of Radiology certified physicians i.e. they are expert on acquiring and interpreting images for specific body parts or diseases. Our clinical skills are honed by collaboration with our clinical colleagues via interdisciplinary conferences."

"In this endeavor, while we have the best of an expert team of doctors taking care of the patients at one hand; we have an exemplary team of voluntary physicians and retired physicians who provide medical assistance to the not so wealthy class from negligible."

"The clinic stands apart in going a step ahead and working with the patient’s health care team to come up with a comprehensive treatment plan. This is because of the insight that many eye conditions stem from other medical conditions like diabetes, thyroid disorder, immune cell systems."
