Services Provided

Minor Accident and Injury Care

Primary care practices offer a range of services and are able to deal with most minor accident care. If they are not able to deal with an injury they will refer on to the appropriate service.

There is no hospital on Waiheke Island, so Ostend Medical Centre provides a very wide range of accident and medical services, for both minor and more severe injuries. Patients who have had accidents sometimes interrupt a busy appointment schedule. This means that scheduled patients may have to wait longer than we would like. We thank you for your patience if this happens to you.

The doctors at the Ostend Medical Centre routinely treat fractured bones (there is an X-ray unit here), suture lacerations and are trained in the emergency care of an injured patient. Patients with serious injuries are stabilised at this medical practice before being airlifted, or transported by sea, to Auckland City Hospital.
