Considering an appointmentAre we the right service for you?We are a private women's health clinic, and do not provide an urgent service. You may wish to see your GP first, to see if initial management can be started as we usually have a wait for appointments. Then we can build on the work you have done with your GP.
We do try to triage and prioritise GP and other referrals |

All appointments can be face-to-face, telephone or video call. Many women have a mixture. You are also welcome to bring a support person (or 2). And if your child needs to come, we will make that work as well. We believe that whanau [family] health is part of all health. |
