Our Services

Immunisations are one of the most important services we provide. Immunisation has led to the decline of many lethal diseases including meningococcal B meningitis. The schedule vaccinations are provided to children free of charge, and risks associated with immunisation are very rare. Children have their own document to keep a record of these injections. Under the age of 5 this is usually their Well Child/Tamariki Ora My Health Book.

We provide skin checks for our patients to ensure early detection of skin cancer. New Zealand has one of the highest melanoma rates in the world, so it's important you get your skin checked regularly. We provide expert dermoscopy services and can follow lesions over time to identify concerning features that might indicate a cancerous lesion. We can remove most simple lesions in our clinic, or refer you to see a Dermatologist or Plastic Surgeon if required.

We run regular diabetes clinics which help patients and whānau to learn more about the condition and how to manage it, to lead long healthy lives. Our doctors and nurses can provide detailed information about all of the different treatment options and give lifestyle advice. This covers diet, blood glucose testing, oral medications, insulin and more.

You may be required to present a medical certificate to renew or replace your drivers licence. This includes drivers aged 75 or over, heavy vehicle drivers, drivers with passenger endorsements, and drivers with a medical condition that affects their ability to drive.

We provide driver's licence medical assessments including vision testing, blood pressure check and screening for any medical conditions which may affect your ability to drive safely. You will then be provided with an NZTA-approved medical certificate for your licence application.

An ECG is a recording of your heart's electrical activity. Electrode patches are attached to your skin to measure the electrical impulses given off by your heart. The result is a trace that can be read by a doctor. It can give information of previous heart attacks or problems with the heart rhythm.

Liquid nitrogen is a fast, effective treatment provided in many practices to treat viral warts, sun damaged skin, skin tags and many benign cosmetic lesions. It comes in a container with a nozzle and is usually applied by swab or spray. Often one treatment is all that is needed but sometimes it may need repeating after two weeks.

We provide front line mental health care for our patients, and can assess, treat and manage a wide variety of mental health issues. Talk to your doctor or nurse if you are feeling down or unwell, no matter how minor it may seem. If needed, we can refer you on to other mental health services, and can check in to see how you're getting on.

Our minor surgery clinic provides access to fast, competent removal of skin lesions. We can also perform cosmetic work such as removal of benign moles and skin tags, and ingrown toenail surgery. This saves you a trip to hospital and the long waits that entails. For more information, or to find out how we can help you, get in touch with us today.

We offer advice and immunisations before you go to another country. While you are likely to have the immunisations needed to live in New Zealand, there may be other injections you need to protect yourself before going for example to Africa, South East Asia or South America. In some places you will need protection from rabies or malaria. Our doctors will be able to tell you what diseases you will need to be protected from wherever you are travelling to.

A virtual consultation is a way of having an appointment with your healthcare provider, but not in person. This is usually done via a video app or a phone call. While we prefer in person consults, we offer virtual consults for a range of needs.

Available at standard consult charges.

The Well Child Tamariki Ora programme is a series of health visits and support that are free to all families for children from around 6 weeks up to 5 years of age. These checks cover your child's growth and development, immunisations, oral health checks, family health and wellbeing, early childhood education, vision and hearing checks.

Cervical smears. All women who have ever been sexually active should have regular cervical smear tests every three years between the ages of 25 and 69. This test detects abnormal cells which, if left untreated, could become cervical cancer. Regular tests and treatment reduces the likelihood of this sort of cancer by around 90%.

IUCDs. An Intrauterine Contraceptive Device (IUCD) is inserted into a woman’s uterus to prevent pregnancy. Depending on the type of device, it will need to be changed after between three and five years. Some IUCDs can also be used to treat heavy menstrual bleeding.
