December 2018 update: Our books are open and we are welcoming new patients.
Read a copy of our patient brochure here.
Tui Ora Family Health is a multi-doctor GP service at the Maru Wehi complex in Maratahu Street. We deliver high quality primary medical care at a low cost. A kaiāwhina in our practice works alongside whānau, advocating for them and helping deal with the different factors that impact on a person’s health and wellbeing.
Our practice includes three medical practitioners as well as practice nurses and associated administrative support. We are a Cornerstone accredited practice and a member of Midlands Health Network PHO.
Services include the management of long-term conditions such as diabetes, minor surgical procedures, ACC consultations and services related to children's and youth health.
Tui Ora Family Health is part of large health and social services provider Tui Ora. This allows us to take a holistic view of care, ensuring our clients can access a wider range of services and overcome many traditional barriers to health and wellbeing. Our books are currently full and we are unable to accept new patients in 2018.
