General Practice (GP) Service
Services Provided
Minor Surgery
Minor surgery is commonly provided in primary care practices, providing fast, competent removal and biopsies of skin lesions. Other services include cosmetic work such as removal of benign moles and skin tags. Ingrown toenail surgery is also commonly provided.
These conditions do not need to be referred to a hospital, perhaps saving you a long wait or a cancelled appointment when a more serious case takes priority.
If your doctor is unable to provide the procedure you need, he/she may know a neighbouring GP who does. Otherwise, the PHO will have a list of GPs trained in particular operations.
All of the GPs at The Doctors Fred Thomas offer the skin biopsy and skin lesion removal service, and if your insurance company is Southern Cross, this can be claimed directly through the "Easy-Claim" process.

COVID-19 : we want to help our patients get well and protect our staff and community.
Please do not present to the clinic if you are unwell without speaking to one of our staff first.
If you have cold or flu-like symptoms including cough, shortness of breath, sore throat, fever, runny nose or sneezing, please contact the clinic on 09 972 9020 to to discuss this with one of our team.
COVID testing is FREE - you will not be charged for your test unless you are travelling out of NZ
YOUR SAFETY
The safety and well-being of our patients and staff is a priority for us, and so patients visiting for COVID-19 testing or assessment are directed to a different parking area, away from the main entrance. Testing is carried out in your car where possible, and if an assessment is required, this is done in an isolation room.
This means that if you need to visit the clinic for another reason, for example your flu vaccine, you will not be exposed to any areas where COVID-19 assessments or testing is taking place.
Testing is a vital part of stopping the spread of COVID-19, and we are happy to be helping with this part of the response plan.
There is also a dedicated Healthline number for Coronavirus enquiries – 0800 358 5453. Thanks for your patience and understanding.
