Most of us are well aware of the strain this years cold and flu season has placed on medical facilities and our staff are getting sick too!
After the pandemic we have seen an increase in patients wanting to get better fast and therefore attending the practice for a common cold which has a typical course of 1-2 weeks. We encourage you to select this link and review the up to date health information provided by Healthify to help you determine if you need to seek medical attention: https://healthify.nz/health-a-z/c/colds
Our nurses can assist you if you need a Medical Certificate (fee applies) and these can be issued for up to 5 days. You can organise this by calling reception who will get one of the nursing team to return your call.
If you do need to come and see us please wear a mask (provided at reception) to help our other patients and staff remain well.
