General Practice
We are at 2 Dip Road, Kamo, Whangarei
Our aim is to work alongside each individual patient to achieve their best possible health and well-being outcomes.
We have a great team of skilled and experienced staff working in a well-equipped, caring and friendly environment.
BOOKING
Consultations are by appointment although urgent problems can be seen as needed. Each appointment is normally for 15 minutes. If you think you need more time please book a longer appointment.
We appreciate a phone call if you are going to be late or need to change the time. If appointments are not kept without letting us know in reasonable time to re-book them, a fee may be charged.
It is very helpful if you can say whether your appointment is a particular need such as ACC, driver’s medical, cervical smear, new baby 6wk check, etc. so you can be fitted in appropriately. If you think you may need more time please ask for a longer appointment.
Fees can vary depending on procedures required, additional time for consultation, insurance reports or minor surgery.
Prescriptions: $25 (if not part of a consultation). Non-urgent. $30 Urgent/same day/multiple items.
Lab Results: Your doctor will review all lab results. Please phone the nurse for your results or log into Manage My health. You will be contacted if any results are abnormal.
Cervical Smears: with the nurse $30 / with the doctor $25 + consult fee. Free for smears that are due from 1 March 2027.
Nurse Consults: Prices vary depending on procedure or treatment.

Pharmacist prescriber
We are pleased to introduce a new clinician and a new role to our General Practice
