Medical services in New Zealand

“Mike at the store went above and beyond - he looked me up in the system for my Life card and saw 2 entries. He asked for my details as there were herds of ppl in for last minute items for Xmas Eve. He then left a voicemail for me after sorting out the issue, consolidating 2 cards I had and resulting in a $10 voucher. I would have had that for quite a while so to take action - and on such a busy day - is pretty top notch!”

“Kathy is a super experienced podiatrist who is passionate about her job. Very professional and fills you with confidence that she will do the best job possible. Great bedside manner. Goes the extra mile. Highly recommend! #disabled #wheelchair #chronicillness”

“Friendly staff, small and clean, and extremely well organized. Their automated reminders for repeats are literally the bomb.com.”

“I have absolutely LOVED this gym. Everyone is friendly, the gear is great, it’s rarely crowded, and having the basketball court has been a great bonus.”

“My two kids started swimming at Swimsation Te Atatu Peninsula in April 2024. They had very limited skills when they started (way below their school age level). With the support of the great teachers they learnt so much in just a few months that now they are swimming beyond their school age level. The staff is kind and accomodating, we managed to catch up with our make up classes every time we had one missed class. Thank you! Keep up the good work, you guys are great!”

“Every time I visit this pharmacy I am reminded how great they are and how much value they provide. I have only ever had great service as well as awesome advice from all who work there. My feeling is that they do have their customer's best interests at heart and they always are friendly and efficient. I also find their prices competitive and reasonable.”

“Clean environment !! Lovely younger staff, made me feel welcome”

“Very friendly staff and efficient service. Free prescription. They open Monday to Saturday 9am to 5pm. Opening on Saturdays is convenient for people with normal working hours. Alex and the lady at the counter are so kind and caring, they always find the right sized containers for you to carry the medicines if there are too much. Highly recommended and definitely 5-star service.”

“very good place with cheap price and many variety goods:>”

“Fantastic staff. Always helpful. Great selection of gifts and pharmaceutical products”

“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.”

“Dr Charmaine is exceptional with her diagnosis and care. Thank you for being patient with me during my treatment, allowing me to take breaks and working slowly. The whole team is amazingly helpful and friendly, thank you again.”

“I went for an ultrasound and X-ray (cervical spine) today. The whole experience was smooth and quick. All the staff were really nice and professional. The person who did my ultrasound and the one who took my neck X-ray were both very skilled and made me feel comfortable throughout.”

“I went in for the first time to the walk in emergency care for an injury. The reception staff were fantastic. Extremely helpful and courteous. The nurse & Dr were also great, A+. Well done to the entire team. I wouldn't hesitate to go there again. Many thanks.”

“Called in before a sports game to get some bits and staff were super helpful despite it being very busy.”

“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.”

“Te Puke Waipuna Hospice Shop is an all round exciting experience. A huge range of just about everything you can think of, brightly displayed in a very shopper friendly atmosphere! An absolute MUST. You will be so glad you visited, treasures for all.”
