The Doctors Golf Road

Welcome to our practice - we are a satellite clinic of The Doctors New Lynn  

Now we are back in Alert Level 1 so our practice is open and both face-to-face and phone consultations are offered.  Please stay home if you have any flu like symptoms and call to speak to our Registered Nurse.  We also encourage patients to wear a face mask when visiting our medical practice to protect themselves and their community. 

Please note we are closed at 2:30pm on Thursdays.  

As a satellite clinic of The Doctors New Lynn all patients enrolled at The Doctors Golf Road are always welcome at New Lynn medical centre and can visit for after hours care until 8pm Monday to Friday and 9am to 3pm weekends and public holidays. 

COVID-19 Notice: In Alert Level 1 our consults are in person and through phone or video. Phone 09 817 5442 to book appointments or if you have questions. So that everyone gets the help they need safely, we screen all appointment requests which may mean calling you back with more details. Tell us if you have any cough, cold or flu-like symptoms - you'll need to wear a mask in the clinic and may be asked to wait outside until the doctor is ready for you.

Please note: When we move to Alert Level 3 or 4 this clinic has the potential to close to ensure the wellbeing of patients and staff. In this situation our Golf Road doctors provide their consults at The Doctors New Lynn.
