“My cat was injured and my usual vet didn't have a spot for the same day appointment and after couple of calls to multiple clinics I was able to get an appointment here. I continued with the checkups too. All the nurses and vets I met there were wonderful - very friendly, understanding, answering all my questions, polite and knowledgeable. They were really concerned to give my cat the very best care.”

Thanks Natasha we appreciate you”

“Very helpful staff brought a new pair of glasses in under half a hour Great selection and service. The guy who served me was friendly and approachable Can't wait to get my new glasses”

“Came to look around the gym based on the council's current $30 promo and Lilli (from the Customer Experience team) was an absolute star. The other council gyms we'd visited had just waved us through independently, which is totally fine, but Lilli went the extra mile, showing us all the equipment, group fitness areas and pools and gave us loads of useful information, which has very much convinced us to join. Thanks again!”

“I brought my Daughter in for her first eye exam today and Wow I was not expecting how amazing the team was with young kids . My daughter was treated amazing and we had the most sweetest worker who come and did drawing with my daughter while we waiting for the results. The man who spoke with us about the eye test results was very detailed and double cheeked everything he answered every question we had (again amazing with such a young child) such a wonderful experience”

“I had a great experience with Dr Yaso and the team. I had been under treatment with Yaso for a year for ligament fracture. Yaso had helped me throughout the journey and provided me all the support and care I needed beacuse of which I was able to recover quickly. Thanks for the amazing service.”

“Just been to UC open day with my daughter. She will be attending in 2027. Such a fabulous experience. All the hype of open night delivered in Wellington, re delivered and experienced in campus. Super knowledgeable staff and extraordinarily kind and patient student help. Such a great vibe and so removed from my own experience it makes me want to go back to learning. Can't recommend this Uni any higher.”

“I was so nervous today, after having a poor experience with another dental clinic and was left traumatised. However at Tui Dental in Parkwood - today Dr Mercedes Dizon and her assistant were super helpful and engaging, they made the environment that much more relaxing. The vibes were so good, I highly recommend these ladies and this dental! I’ll definitely be back in the new year to have my wisdoms removed. Thanks a million team, and have a great Christmas!”

“Best Bin Inn ever. So much selection but the shop is clean and orderly, doesn't feel cramped like some others I've been to. Beyond bulk foods, their selection of organic and speciality diet goods is incredible. Whole place had a really calm vibe, and the two staff I interacted with were friendly and helpful.”

“It is one of the best healthcare facility in Te Awamutu .”

“Great swim school and incredible progress in such a short time! The manager and swim teachers are amazing as well as the ability to book make up lessons if we are unable to attend our normal classes. Highly recommend!”

“There's a Subway, a gym, public toilets, conference rooms, and a basketball court. It's always clean and lively. However, the parking around the back makes no sense. It's hard to figure out how to exit according to the arena's painted arrows.”

“Exceptional customer service from Claire. Very knowledgeable and efficient, helped me pick the perfect product I was looking for. I will definitely be coming back to this store.”

“Love that you have recycling for foil lined cardboard. Fantastic range of foodstuffs now, even the gluten-free area has doubled in selection.”

“Really helpful staff. But occasionally get busy during some periods of the week.”

“Had a really good experience here a few months ago. The receptionists were super helpful and friendly, I had some delays with my referral and they explained everything to me clearly. The clinic was nice and clean and my ultrasound was done professionally and thoroughly.”

“We've had the absolute best experience with VSA. Had to bring in our dog twice for a suspected slipped disc, and ended up leaving him there the second time for IV fluids. He had a CT scan first thing in the morning; unfortunately he needed two spinal surgeries so he had to wait until the day after for proper planning, otherwise it would have been done straight after CT Scan while still under anaesthesia. We live far away so couldn't come for the scan results, but the surgeon took the time to show us the scans via a video call and made sure we understood what was happening and what needed to be done. They sent us frequent updates and were always highly professional. The surgery went extremely well and we were able to visit him the day after surgery. Thanks to their great care and our boys bravery and resilience, we were able to take our baby home just three days later. That whole event was really scary and exhausting for us, but we felt very supported and can honestly highly recommend them. 2x emergency visits, 4 nights stay, CT Scan, double surgery and meds was around 12k in total which is a lot, but we knew he had the highest quality care and that is definitely worth it for us. A huge thank you to the entire team who helped us - and most importantly, our good boy - get through this.”

“My regular pharmacy. They know what they are talking about, but more importantly they can help when a GP is hard to get to . Would not go anywhere else”

“I’ve never experienced such a high level of care and kindness from an entire GP clinic. From the warm and helpful receptionists to the attentive nurses and especially the compassionate doctors, every visit has been truly positive. They handle urgent matters with both understanding and efficiency, and the staff consistently treats patients with respect and courtesy. It’s clear they strive to make everyone feel heard, valued, and genuinely cared for. Thank you for your outstanding service and the welcoming, inclusive environment you’ve created. I’m truly grateful knowing that my whole family is in such good hands!”

“Went for Taekwondo and to play basketball before. Good spot for that.”

“Nobody wants to go to a hospital at all, let alone for a surgical procedure, right? I've had to be panel-beaten from time to time and that's ranged across private and public care systems. Without any exception, the best care I ever got was at Ormiston. Why? Lots of reasons, but here's a few: Yes, they're in business to make a buck, but that's never in your face (Wellington Southern Cross, listen and learn). Staff are available, patient, and no matter how many times they've seen you or conditions like yours they're really engaged. They've not lost sight of the fact that the patient is first and foremost - human. Not an interesting collection of symptoms. I've seen my cat get better empathy at the vet than I got at a surgical procedure at Middlemore. (I excuse the A&E there who are marvellous) The facilities are quiet, clean, and you have a sense of privacy while experiencing what can be intimate or uncomfortable procedures. Aside from reception, and the recovery area, I never saw or heard another patient, or the consultation going on around them. No matter who came to see me - from specialists through to various nurses etc, everyone knocked before entering my space. It's a small thing, but it tells of respect. They were polite, but friendly - not that plastic airline/hotel politeness either. Everyone made strenuous efforts to ensure I knew what was going on, what the sequence of events would be and what to expect, and who to talk to if I wanted anything whatsoever. If you have any choice about where to go, I suggest Ormiston should be high on your list. If you or anyone is going there - as I said - nobody wants to go to hospital - but you might get comfort from knowing you're likely to be getting truly high standards of engagement and care.”

“I have been a loyal customer of Bin Inn Browns Bay once a week for 3-4 years and I have always received the most kind and helpful service from the owner and his wife they have a very large selection of herbs, spices and hard to find Asian grocery products they also have the lowest prices I have come across for all their stock 11/10! Very happy customer!”

“Lovely friendly staff who showed me through the venue and what it has to offer.”

“I have been to Macleans Dentist several times, & Shahba & her staff have been very professional, capable, pleasant & helpful. I highly recommend them, & access is easy with parking on site.”

“Great friendly service always helpful. My number 1 choice. Thanks”
