We’ve had a lot of calls this week with people enjoying some time off and hoping to be seen at short notice.

At the moment, we’re fully booked for the rest of this week and aren’t able to squeeze additional appointments in without compromising care.

The good news is that appointments are available from next week onward, and we’re very happy to help if you can plan a little ahead.

Thanks, as always, for your patience and understanding — taking the time to do things properly is important to us.

A wee reassurance for our patients ❤️

You may have seen recent news about security incidents affecting some online health platforms in NZ.

Just to reassure you — Solecare doesn’t use any public or third-party patient portals for records. Your information is stored in a secure clinical system that we manage carefully and conservatively.

We keep things simple and private on purpose — so your information stays exactly where it should.

If you ever want to know more about how we handle your records, just ask — we’re always happy to talk it through.

From January 2026, there will be a small increase in our consultation fees.

This change helps us keep pace with rising operating costs and continue providing the careful, unhurried podiatry care our patients expect — including proper appointment times, high clinical standards, and ongoing investment in equipment, infection control, and staff support.

Our approach hasn’t changed:
clear advice, thorough care, and respect for your time and comfort.

If you have any questions about fees or appointments, please feel free to ask our team.

Thank you for your continued trust and support — we truly appreciate it.

— The Solecare Team

We’re back to normal clinic hours from Monday 5 January and looking forward to seeing familiar faces — and welcoming some new ones — in 2026.

Thank you for your support over the past year. We hope you’ve had a restful break and are stepping into the new year feeling refreshed (and hopefully pain-free).

And just to clear up any lingering holiday misinformation:
Die Hard is a Christmas film.

Wishing all our patients old and new a very happy, healthy New Year. 👣✨
