Measles is circulating in Aotearoa

Two measles vaccinations protect about 99% of people. 

The vaccine is free for under‑18s and for adults eligible for funded care. Not sure if you’ve had two doses? We can help you check and catch up if required. If you have a fever and a rash, please call us before coming into the practice as measles is very contagious

Men's Health Week

Breaking down the big health issues guys face

All of us will face health problems at some stage of our lives. The more we know about what these are, the better we can face up to them or better still, avoid them.

Too many Kiwi men die from PREVENTABLE illnesses – something that maybe didn’t need to cause so much grief. Just as bad is having to live what can become crap lives then die much earlier than they should.

At Men’s Health Week we have two simple mantras: prevention is way better than a cure, and if we’ve missed the prevention train, then small steps can make a big difference when it comes to starting to put things right. 

This part of the site will take you  to some simple explanations of the big health problems guys in New Zealand may encounter.

The Health Categories links on the right take you directly to the specific pages, and links on these can take you further or to other info we rate. 

The MHW health quizzes are fun and useful too.
