We warmly welcome you to our clinic.

General Practice

Patients who are able, and wish to enrol with our practice are assigned a GP (General Practitioner/Doctor). As an enrolled patient, you have access to subsidised healthcare fees and a wider range of services. And having your own GP gives you continuity of care. 

    Urgent Care

    Our Urgent Care service is a “walk-in” service, available to everyone who needs urgent medical care. This includes patients who are not enrolled with us, non-NZ residents, visitors to Christchurch, as well as our enrolled patients who need urgent medical care. 


    We are unable to take bookings to see Urgent Care doctors. Patients are assessed by a nurse when they arrive, and wait to be seen according to the urgency of their condition.


    We are conveniently located just off Moorhouse Avenue, with car parking onsite. Other onsite services include pharmacy, physiotherapy, x-rays, dentist, travel health.
