Medical services in Christchurch

“I cannot believe some of the posts that have been posted about Avonhead Pharmacy. My family have used the pharmacy continually for 31 years and cannot fault Alf, Eliza and their team. We use the services of the pharmacy on a weekly basis. The staff are all friendly, efficient and obliging. The script is processed quickly and accurately. There is a lot of variety in other products sold and a significant number of these are not available in the immediate area. Services such as vaccinations and passport photos are also useful to have in our local area. I would recommend Avonhead Pharmacy to anyone.”

“Visiting the dentist is not something that one would look forward to. However, the team at Lumino Shirley Dental made the experience much better. Right from the beginning, the cost and dental plan was explained very well. The offers and ability to take advantage of the Q Card payment plans. My dentist, Elena, was amazing. She explained every process before and during the treatment. She was very professional, friendly and I think the best dentist I have ever had. Rene was also wonderful and they both worked well together. I spend years between visits to the dentist but the team at Shirley has made be seriously consider getting into a more regular check up plan.”

“Had a flu injection from the pharmacist. He is very professional. Didn’t hurt a bit. Got me to sit for 15 minutes afterwards Would go to him again.”

“For a person who suffers acute anxiety I found the whole experience very comfortable and relaxing. The staff were wonderful, and William the Dentist made me feel very at ease. I Have since been back and had to have two difficult extractions and did not feel a thing. If I Could recommend this Dental Practice any higher I would. All my life I have had extremely bad experiences with dentists. NOT ANY MORE now that I have found Lumino Dentists at North Avon Dental. Thank you so much Leia (Front desk) & William (Dental Surgeon) and all staff their.”

“Lovely knowledgable staff, always well stocked & communicative of waiting times for prescriptions. May be a a tight fit for wheelchair users due to only 1 double door being available for use. Vaccinators & pharmacists on-site are helpful & friendly. Have been using this pharmacy for several years now & highly recommend just for the great customer service.”

“I went for a clean with their dental hygienist. Being my first time at this dental clinic, I was asked to fill out a form and I appreciate the fact that they ask you if you have any phobias or if you normally feel anxious about dental appointments. I was then greeted warmly by the dental hygienist who took the time to get to know my dental habits, issues, concerns, and welcomed every query I had. She also taught me how to properly floss and brush which I really appreciated. Overall, I had a great experience and would go back here again.”

“I recently attended a scheduled appointment at Southern Eye Specialists. It was busy, however, the staff were all very helpful and friendly. The pre appointment info was detailed, useful and straightforward. All went well with the lovely specialist Dr Rebecca Stack and the whole experience was great. I even enjoyed the knitting available in the comfortable waiting area. Thank you”

“Excellent considerate and very professional friendly people. Friendly as well as professional”

“Brilliant pharmacy, staff, and service. The team really go above and beyond to take care of customers, with excellent advice and support.”

“Have been coming to Motus for a while, managing a few different injuries. The physio I have seen has always been thorough and is great at communicating what she is doing and why she is doing it. Great clinic!”

“Great location! walking distance to city centre. Staff are very friendly.”

“Feeling very thankful for Kristine's experience and intuition today after a recent xray failed to show decay due to it being obscured by another filling. She suggested investigating and I'm glad I trusted her as there was a lot of decay hiding away! Kristine has definitely saved me from a future root canal procedure! I highly trust, value and recommend Kristine. Thank you. :-)”

“Always a great experience with OurVets, they are accommodating with bookings and have fit us in last minute several times over the years, and the team really care about our dogs, always greeting them when we come in and the vets being very thorough with our consults. The reception team are lovely and I wish I knew their names but one of the ladies in particular has been so helpful with the process of transferring our dogs' info over as we move to Aus. Really appreciate it!”

“Very tidy and clear aisles. Staff super busy. At prescription counter staff all heads down working. Phone ringing and attempts made to answer it between servings customers. The man who served me was lovely”

“Easy, not complicated process. Always been treated well-being customer service when I have rung in the past. The web site has improved 100 % compared to a few years. Now no trouble accessing the claim process.”

“Special mention of helpful service from Miami, Mason, and Camile. A great calm experience getting all the products on my list. Great team work, thank you.”

“The receptionist, medical clinicians and nurses are so polite and assuring. My friend recommended me here and I am thankful for this. The walk in option and seeing a registered nurse who works with a team of medical professionals are practical solutions for everyone when there is no quick solution to the shortage of GPs in this country . Thank you.”
