Papanui Medical Centre has been providing care to the people of Papanui and northwest Christchurch for over forty years from firstly one then two converted houses. After several years of planning these houses were demolished in 2017 and construction of a new medical centre was commenced. We are now very happy to be back into our purpose built premises at 438 Papanui Road.
