Description
We are proud to have been selected as one of the GP practices across NZ to embark on a three year Health Care Home project. Working with WellSouth and the District Health Board, we will be Alexandra’s first Health Care Home – offering more convenient care from an environment where quality of care and innovation can flourish.
Key Points:
- Our clients can now book appointments from 8am to 6pm, including lunchtimes.
- We provide high quality care, with a choice of GPs and nurses. If you have a preference, just ask when you make an appointment and we will do our best to match you with your chosen doctor or nurse, but if you’re in a hurry, we can fit you in at the next available time.
- We offer plenty of off-street parking, with the added convenience of an onsite Pharmacy.
- HealthCentral has an online patient portal which allows you to make appointments, request prescriptions and view your test results at any time.

LARC methods are very effective at preventing unplanned pregnancy and are “fit and forget” forms of contraception – you don’t need to remember them every day or every month. LARC methods: Intrauterine Contraceptive Devices (IUCD or IUD) are inserted through the cervix into a woman’s uterus. IUCDs may be either hormonal (Mirena® or Jaydess® ) or non-hormonal (copper IUCD). Jadelle® is a hormone-releasing implant that is inserted just under the skin of the upper arm. Depending on the type of device, it will need to be changed after between three and ten years. Read more about LARC methods here

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. Because it cannot be stored for too long, you will often find that your GP will treat a number of patients one after the other. For more information click here.

If a man decides he does not want to father children, he may choose to have a vasectomy which is a simple and effective method of sterilisation. During this surgical procedure, the vas deferens (the tubes carrying sperm from the testicles to the penis) are cut. A vasectomy can be carried out in a doctor's surgery and takes between 30 and 60 minutes.
