B4 School checks are a FREE service. It is the last of your child’s Well Child/Tamariki Ora checks. These help to identify and deal with any issues that could affect your child’s learning when they go to school. They are ideally done close to your child’s 4th birthday. This allows time for any issues to be considered before your child starts school. We will inform you when it is time for your child’s check, but if your invitation does not arrive soon after your child’s 4th birthday, please update your details with us. Phone 07 872 0300 for an appointment.

We are very pleased to announce that we will be adding a second clinic location in Te Awamutu, on Pioneer Drive, in the Frontier Estate subdivision, in early August.

Our current Bank St location has been a wonderful home for us for the past 53 years and we will continue to operate as per usual from there. However, due to space constraints at Bank St, we are opening new rooms at Frontier Estate so that we can grow our team and services.

The new location will feature six consulting rooms, designed to offer a modern, comfortable, and efficient healthcare experience.
How we utilise the rooms will depend on the mix of staff we have available by the time of opening. GPs are in very short supply all around the world, but we are working very hard to find quality clinicians to help us grow our team, and improve our services and access to care.

We are excited about this new chapter and look forward to welcoming you at our new location.

Thank you for your continued trust and support as we strive to provide the best possible care that we can for you and your family.
