Mental health clinic in New Zealand

“I don't get why the reviews here are so low, just because it's a clinic and you go there because of something that's making you feel bad doesn't mean that it's a poor institution. A public Healthcare service is fundamentally different than something like a pub or tattoo parlor. Firstly the staff are all nice enough, including reception which is a fairly boring/draining position. I'm a visible minority and an international student and genderqueer, if there was any discrimination I'd notice it, but nope nothing. Wait and reservation times during busy periods can go for weeks to maybe two months depending on the specialization of what you're requesting, but this is a pretty good speed if you compare with public Healthcare elsewhere in other countries etc. And for anything that can be done at walk-in, yeah the pace is great. In terms of the actual healthcare, everyone makes it a comfortable environment, which in of itself makes any treatment procedures discussion etc easier. Staff are also willing to accommodate and speed up processes avoid road bumps etc to make the service more efficient faster logical you get the idea. Glad to see people aren't bending over backward to follow healthcare beauracracy when it doesn't make sense. It's not like you have surgery or anything precise here, so there aren't really measures of procedure quality that can be used as points of detriment for here. I could not get one of my medications I got prescribed for back home, but it's simpmy not legally produced in New Zealand that's out of their hands. For mental health psychiatrist therapy etc it's more subjective what your experience is, but I didn't have any issues with my appointment. Can't speak for others obviously, but even if you felt you had or it just was a poor session, it is not reflective of all the collective services here. TLDR yall trippin, this is a good service. Would like to see people try out healthcare clinics in USA or Germany or heaven forbid a developing country.”

“We cannot fault the treatment our son received at Starship any of the times we’ve visited. Our concerns and his wellbeing were always taken incredibly seriously. The doctors, nurses and even triage staff at reception deserve so much more recognition for the outstanding work they do.”

“I have known Diana for many years and I can always rely on her sincere guidance and advice. She has the ability to connect with anyone. I also admire her ability to help others by drawing on experience from her profession, as a not-for-profit director, and as a mother of four. She has a heart of gold.”

“Waikato Hospital is by far the best I’ve ever been to. During my wrist surgery, they looked after me and treated me with exceptional care. I would like to give my heartfelt thanks to all the nurses, anaesthetists, and surgeons for their dedication — my wrist is now in excellent condition again.”
