Medical services in New Zealand

“Dr Vishad provides a professional service. His follow up and monitoring is also very good. He has a calm, friendly and reassuring manner and I have a lot of trust and confidence in him.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can't praise this pharmacy enough! Having moved around Auckland a bit, I've seen my fair share of pharmacies, but this one stands out as my absolute favorite in all of Auckland. The team here is incredibly helpful, hardworking, and always willing to go the extra mile. A special shoutout to Lorraine and Sam – your continued support and availability for any health enquiries are greatly appreciated. It's upsetting to see negative comments because my experiences have been nothing but fantastic. Thank you for being a beacon of excellent service and care in the community. Highly recommend this pharmacy to everyone!”

“Totally Psyched have supported our children's needs for over 18months. This has been through one-on-one sessions, assessments for ADHD. TP have always put the needs of the children first and communicated where applicable and required. The staff have a vast field of expertise and continue to develop and support the children as requirements change. The staff are friendly and more than accommodating with appointment slots. There is always someone to communicate with and I have found them professional and factual with report writing and support. Thank you to all the team at TP.”

“Very nice staff and services they offer vaccines also must visit instead of waiting in hospitals you can book and go here”

“Highly recommend this practice! We recently moved to a provider linked to our health insurance, but have been with Te Puna Hauora (Northcote) for several years after a recommendation from whanau. *Convenient parking with plenty of spaces. *Welcoming receptionists who communicate well and ensure patients know to register their car details in the kiosk every time. *Flexible payment options, including online banking. *The Health Tracking app makes booking appointments and repeats easy. *The pharmacy next door is great for urgent meds, and prescriptions are sent to your preferred pharmacy when not needed right away. *Nurses are caring, and the check-in process is smooth. Just arrive 15mins prior to your booking as advised. *The doctors, especially Dr Nehal Al-Reffe, are attentive, empathetic and thorough. She was definitely our favourite. *We've been lucky to be there when they had some donated packaged buns/bread for free that we took advantage of, something I've never seen at a GP before. I’ve seen reviews about dated decor, wait times and rude service, but in my experience, wait times are normal for any busy GP and rude service is not our experience. *The decor is not modern, but clearn, comfortable and warm. *Receptionists handle difficult situations (patients) well, and there’s signage about querying wait times after 30 minutes. Basically - if you are patient, respectful and communicate clearly and kindly, you'll go well here (as at any other GP.) We’re grateful for their support, particularly for my daughter's ADHD care and my post-WLS check-ups.”

“Amazing experience!!! Stan and his beautiful assistant looked right after me! I have both a needle phobia and I've had a couple of bad dental experiences. Stan's calming demeanor and professional reassuring attitude relaxed me from the beginning.... from walking in so nervous and anxious to looking forward to my next Wednesday appointment with Stan! Who would have thought!? The lovely receptionist was so caring from when I walked in to calling up the next day to check on me! Thankyou thankyou thankyou Stan and the amazing Lumino Silverstream crew! An amazing quick appointment which has left me pain free! The day after and I have no pain or aching gums or anything!?? I'm so grateful and I just can't recommend Stan and his crew to you all!! Do yourself a favour go and see Lumino! Stan is definitely the man! Love, peace and pain free teeth! Jason UPDATE!!!! Went back to Stan the man and he saved a tooth I thought was ready for extracting with a half hour filling!! Can't WAIT for some more dental goodness on the 21st of Feb!!!”

“I had 1 wisdom tooth coming out therefore took an appointment on 2nd July but it started hurting me badly prior to the appointment, so I had to cancel and book an appointment at tui dental Bryant road. Got the appointment early which I didn't expected and the tooth was extracted by Dr Min within 2 minutes which me and my wife were surprised. Didn't had any pain and I got healed up very quickly. Strongly recommend.”

“It has been a devine blessing to be able to go to the hospital. My wife was in absolutely great pain when I took her to the hospital at around 8pm. It was from the moment I arrived at the hospital, it has been a perfect service with respect, kindness and utmost concern for an individual who was in a great distress. I just want to thank every individual around the hospital I. E. THE DOCTORS, nurses, janitors, and or even the ward assistants. They were all very very good and their response towards my wife was excellent. My wife Alpana Goundar had a gallbladder operation and the enter team that were responsible has done a supurb job. I don't know all of them by name but they were all just simply best. The nurses I remember were Deepa and Sally not forgetting others THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH.”

“I travel the world full-time in retirement and it is critical that I get my prescriptions refilled every three months in each country that I visit. I was a walk-in to the adjacent doctors office today. The doctor prescribed the medications I needed. I want to give a huge thanks to the pharmacists who expedited my medication refills. You ladies were phenomenal and thank you so much. I highly recommend this pharmacy!”

“The young lady at the desk, Emma, was very kind, respectful and helpful. She helped me find exactly what I was looking for, and made my first experience at the Blockhouse Bay Pharmacy very enjoyable.”

“The district nurses are very care to patients and professional. Reception ladies are also very kind. It opens 7 days a week, even on the public holidays. Plus, there are always plenty parking spaces. I really appreciate their working on my wound care.”

“Experienced amazing care from the team today from reception and triage team as well as Dr Munro. I have severe back pain caused from an injury a few weeks ago and the care provided by the whole team made me feel at ease. I was seen to promptly and was given a bed to lay down on in a room as I was to uncomfortable to stand or sit down on a chair. The nurses checked in on me regularly and everyone took their time with me and made me feel listened to and truly cared for even though I could tell how busy you all were. I truly appreciate everyone for the care provided today ♥️ thank you so much xx”

“We just spent a couple of hours in Lower Hutt A & E. For a place where you are dealing with people in pain, I cannot speak highly enough about the service we received from the nurses and the doctor. Especially Nurse Jaynie. She did her best to distract my mum and keep her mind off the pain and it was very greatly appreciated. Please know that you are all doing an exceptional job. Thank you heaps”

“I want to express my complete gratitude to the emergency department team and the nurses in the Rangtira ward. We went in thinking one thing, but were quickly rushed in where 3 drs and 5 nurses worked so quickly to help our little boy start to breathe again. I know that’s your job, but he is our life, and we can’t thank you enough ❤️ once in recovery, Erica, a nurse in the Rangitira ward was so accommodating and caring and natural, that it made our stressful time there easy. Health professionals don’t get enough gratitude. They have a real job that actually matter. Thanks guys and girls. Love you all ❤️❤️❤️”

“The director of this clinic stands out for her compassionate and thoughtful approach to caring for people. She has consistently demonstrated kindness, empathy, and a genuine interest in myself and the well-being of others.”

“Had a very positive and easy experience at my visa medical appointment today, the staff were very friendly and organised and the doctor was so kind and made me feel completely at ease. I was seen promptly and also had a great experience going across the road to get my x-ray- so convenient and great not to have to organise it separately! I went to these guys a couple of years ago for a different visa application (also a great experience) and am so glad I remembered and came back this time!”

“Shop staff were busy with a small queue of orders, but immediately acknowledged me, took my order and started preparing it. I paid for it while it was being made, and was soon out-the-door again. Friendly and attentive staff with an efficient service. Will definitely shop there again, cheers :-)”

“My wife came in from Palmerston North with kidney issues, and within 20 minutes she was looked at and given a room. All the nurses and doctors have been helpful and supportive. I will happily recommend the Wairapapa Hospital!”

“I arrived last week in an ambulance after a hip replacement elsewhere to be greeted by a bulging ED with resources clearly stretched. Despite that I was seen quite quickly and was admitted for a cardioversion. The procedure was completed quickly and effectively the next morning. Despite being a large and complex facility the staff were terrific; thanks to the cardiologists, theatre staff, nurses on Ward 10 and the many others who assisted. All were super helpful and cheerful which was much appreciated.”

“I entered the ED with a groin bleed out Within minutes of arriving nurses were accessing my condition You need to no your NHI number to make the process faster”

“Came here for a couple weeks for a winter getaway. Was not disappointed! Outstanding service from the gourmet dining in to the karaoke lounge room classes. If you are visiting Dunedin this is the place to stay! Luxurious bedding, breakfast in bed and they even have a a tennis court. There’s no time for boredom at the Wakari resort; if you’re not out shooting hoops or taking a piss there’s a huge selection of essential oils to smell at the reception area. If I haven’t convinced you yet picture yourself in front of a flat screen tv relaxing to informercials, creating masterpieces in the spacious art area or cigarette but collecting in the beautiful gardens with your new friends. This place truly has it all.”

“My husband went to Botany SuperClinic Public Hospital in November 2023. There were at least 40 patients waiting in the clinic. Luckily, as my husband is a chronic asthmatic who suffered from short of breath, he didn’t need to wait for a long time. Staff there are very nice and helpful. If you are not feeling well, let’s go there and get appropriate medical treatment.”

“I had a very positive experience at Shore Care recently and wanted to acknowledge the great service provided by the whole team. Everyone was efficient, friendly, and made the visit as smooth as possible, especially considering the wait times. A special thank-you to Kiana at reception — she was warm, helpful, and made the check-in process really easy. Her kindness were much appreciated. The doctor was also incredibly helpful and took the time to explain everything clearly, which made the whole experience reassuring. Thank you Shore Care for the excellent care and support.”
