Te Taiwhenua o Heretaunga

Description

Te Taiwhenua o Heretaunga is a family-focussed organisation providing health, housing, education and social services in Hawke's Bay. We help individuals, whānau and communities by creating holistic, personalised plans of care, support and development. We use traditional kaupapa Māori values and culture, involving the hinengaro (mind), tinana (body), wairua (spirit) and whānau (social) aspects of our lives. 

Our General Practice offers high-quality, low-cost medical, dental care, and an on-site pharmacy for your convenience and our books are open for enrolments.
