Māngere East Medical Centre is conveniently located next to Hunts Pharmacy in the Countdown Shopping Centre at 359 Massey Road, with ample parking available and good wheelchair access.
It was established in December 1995 by Drs Sunil and Shelley Roy out of a desire to contribute to improving the health of the people in South Auckland with its high Māori, Pacific Island, immigrant and lower socioeconomic group population demographics and its statistically higher incidence of preventable and chronic diseases and lower life expectancy.
Our vision is to provide affordable, equitable, excellent healthcare to all our patients. We believe that every person has the right to the quality healthcare that we strive to provide and co-ordinate on their behalf.
Good health is imperative to a person's "general wellbeing" and is greatly influenced by their physical, mental and spiritual wellness as well as their family and personal relationships.
We strive to provide a high standard of services to our patients as outlined by the RNZCGP's Cornerstone Guidelines and we are a Cornerstone accredited Medical Practice.
Our staff consists of two doctors, a nurse and a receptionist offering full general practice services and family care 6 days a week, excluding Sundays and public holidays. After hours telephone medical advice is available by ringing our practice and after hours care is referred to Ōtāhuhu A&E.
Present staff are fluent in English, Hindi, Punjabi and Tongan.
At present our books are closed to new patients with the exception of some new family additions or patients re-enrolling after moving back into our area, at the discretion of the Practice Manager.
The fee structure is reflective of our vision with under 14s free, 14-18 years $13 and over 18 years $19.50. Special examinations e.g. procedures such as IUCD insertions / minor surgery have specific charges.
