Description
The South Taranaki Rural Health General Practice (the Practice), located at Hāwera Hospital, is a modern service run by a team of senior skilled clinicians such as general practitioners, nurse practitioners, practice nurses, clinical nurse leaders and rural/urgent care doctors. We aim to provide a welcoming, safe environment for all with a focus on equity and patient-centred care.
Same day Clinic: We ask that people try their own GP first as they are in the best place to help with your health needs. STRHGP runs a Same day Clinic, as able, where we see casual patients who need same-day evaluation for minor illnesses or injuries.
Please note we DO NOT see patients in the acute clinic for WINZ / sickness or off work forms or certificates, referrals to Base Hospital, routine prescriptions, controlled drug prescriptions or 3 month routine Doctor reviews. Please contact your own GP for these services.
If you need an on-the-day appointment, please call the Same Day Clinic on (06) 278 1383 and select option 2.
We partner with Ka Ora Telecare to provide same day virtual GP appointments for enrolled patients, as an extension of our regular medical centre team.
Ka Ora is available weekdays from 5pm to 8.30am and 24/7 weekends/public holidays.
