The Doctors Massey Medical Centre

Welcome to our practice. 

We are a family-friendly, welcoming medical practice providing a full range of general practice services.  We work in partnership with our patients to prevent ill health and promote well-being for all those registered with us. We are also proud to be Cornerstone Accredited. 

Our large practice space means we can offer treatment of minor accidents and wound care, so our local community don't need to travel for these services.  We offer disease prevention & promotion of healthy lifestyle, multi-ethnic patient care, continuity of care, informed choices, responsive to the special status, health needs and rights of Maori, disabled access, working with other agencies and community services, refugee care and assisting with psycho-social issues.

We are closed on Weekends and Public Holidays. We recommend you go to Westcare Whitecross 131 Lincoln Road Henderson during these times.   

Covid-19 Tests & Results
If you have Covid-19 symptoms or are a household contact of a positive case please do not come into the practice.  Please self test at home.  Most testing is now done via Rapid Antigen Testing (RATs) with results available within 15mins. You will need to self-report your result via My COVID Record or by calling 0800 222 478 and pressing option 3. The majority of positive cases will be able to self-manage and required to follow current isolation rules. If you have concerns or if your symptoms are worsening, call us on 09 831 0170 or 111 in an emergency.  RAT tests are no longer routine at the medical centre and we ask that you do this at home.

Rheumatic Fever Prevention Programme

Rheumatic Fever is completely preventable by correct treatment of Strep A sore throat infections. Untreated, this can result in damaged heart valves and decreased life expectancy.  High risk groups are Maori and Pacific children aged 4 – 19 years, and also those in poor quality, crowded housing.  Concerning symptoms are: temperature >38 C, no cough, swollen tonsils (with or without pus), and swollen lymph nodes. The Doctors Massey Medical is a designated Rapid Response Clinic for treatment and prevention of Rheumatic Fever – this means you can be seen by the nurse immediately and may avoid needing a doctor’s appointment.

Appointments

If you need a health care appointment with a Massey doctor, give us a call on (09) 831 0170.

Test Results

How to access your test results - If your results indicate that some action is required, the practice will contact you. If you do not hear from us you may assume the test result has given no cause for concern. However, if you would like to access the result please phone the nurse from 2-5pm. Allow at least 2 days for blood results and 1 week for other test results to be processed. The nurses may text you to phone them if they need to discuss a result with you. Please check at the front desk that we have your latest mobile phone number.

Your test results automatically go to Testsafe where they are stored securely for electronic access by other doctors. e.g. at the hospital. This enables safer care and avoids having to have tests redone. If you wish to opt out of this system please inform us.

Repeat Prescriptions

Some repeat prescriptions can be requested without seeing the doctor. However, all repeat prescriptions do require periodic reviews with the doctor. Different medications require differing length of review periods e.g. three or six monthly. The time interval will be agreed with the GP. Repeat prescriptions can be requested by phoning the nurse. Please allow at least 24 hours for your prescription to be ready. An additional fee will be incurred those required on the same day.
